Seized Lies My Body

Lek Borja

Seized lies my body
in the latitude of her sex How her desire shines
like luminescence in the sea as if the moon were
inside it, as in every hour where
we enter together Tenderly
sink then float longingly so My eyes follow
her journey down to
its end With her tears I Crusoe to my own
wanted end of her flesh and my
weight seemingly undulating until repeatedly we are
doused in her liquid
burning
