It begins slowly,
Soft eyes savoring
each tiny syllable
And then the pressure grows,
Hunger driven focus
Conjugating souls
Fervor spreads the mind
To rhythms unexplored
Senses leap and quicken
Reaching out for more
Vermilion ecstasy
Breath-stuttered awe
Rising up of poetry
Body in hurrah
And then the rushing peace,
the quiet lull of rapture
In beautiful release,
arcs forever after.
