Yor-love lifts me
to a higher discipline
beyond the measure of time and space
but for a moment
we take a journey
into Yor-fantasy world
where I love you
slowly/surely/confidently
bathe you in warm waters
and draw you closer to divinity
nurturing /anointing /blissful elements
surpassing surreal
back to the imagined
rinse you in the potion
from which the Earth was brought forth
if only for a moment in time
we waste not a drop
less we measure
the motion of space in between
the uncontrollable
rise and fall
the synchronous beat and pulse
the inhale /the exhale / and the pause...
our attraction wades and dives
like a driving force of nature
even Obatala's palm wine
could not cripple Yor-Love
that flows from the Nile of my heart
and empties out in my words
spiritually rooted
in thoughts and prayers
that breathe new life
when you are near
and principles
that silence the desolate dam of my yesterdays
that can no longer be contained cause tonight
our hearts dance together in wild celebration
with warm sand meshed beneath our feet
and Caribbean wine fountains dripping from our tongues
and as the day falls
behind the smallest hut
we say a prayer for the living
and welcome them into a new world
