Wholesome

.
Having left a chamber of fabric
.........................................sheltered light
draped....................
........in subtle anticipation

moving through.........................
the doors
.........................of private thought
.....................................into a morning bathroom

.............................bright leaves
and shadow

through a window
...........................in view
..................his long dark thing
............................................capped
...........................................with its mushroom head

...........................................continuous
...........................................from the
...........................................throat down
...........................................through
...........................................the heart
...........................................to the point
...........................................of joy
...........................................where it
...........................................angles out
...........................................hopefully
...........................................into the
...........................................moist air
..........................................nearing
...........................................evaporation

he washes
................its stem
.............with casual
reverence

......preparing for the mouth of love
.
