what we know what we do

more than anatomy
sit down with any woman
listen
absent the filters
what you think you know
she will tell you
much more

ritual of exploring hidden quiet
mysteries resolved in water
dark, dense, space
forbidden and required
our space

the everything we know
trusting dreams
friending visions
knowing no separation
between us and Goddess
us and Spirit

we know
don’t say all the time
but we all ways know
he is lying
she is afraid
tomorrow will come

this will pass
the last embrace
we know it all

it’s the lotioning of legs after shower
after bath
after sex
after prayer

secret way we caress our breasts
fondle the nipple
when we are alone
the whole world of what we do
when we are alone
