Pollinated




enchanting pheromons
lure me to earth
your opened petals
are my landingstrip

almost weightless
I tiptoe on your skin
with volatile touch
I rub your stamen

searching for the fuel
on which my soul survives
I suck your nectar

I leave you shuddering
while I continue on my way
and glide away from you

To my beloved one

Oh Wystan dear, don't dwell upon
those shiny stars, they haven't won.
No-one ever could tame your heart
tear into pieces, fall apart.

You have to lock away your love
for the heavenly bodies from above.
Because you learn to love deep black
and hide the love, the love you lack.

The equal love between us two
needs no-one covering for you.
You'll always keep me in your life
so silence is no sacrifice.

In spirit and in flesh we share
a unique love that is so rare.
Sleep well my love, sleep well and rest
I'm in the pocket at your breast.



response to W.H. Auden
The More Loving One (1957)
