Scandinavian daydreams
before Swedish Erotica nightfall
Impotent ramblings about
unpaid gambling debts
Viagra-fuelled bacchanals
under undulating chuppahs
Spontaneously combusting groupies
with hearts afire
Electric blue walls of kilowatt
per channel surround sound
Brocken spectres captured
on high-speed film
Inflexible inflections of
cross-border dialogue
Standing one's ground in
the face of old pheromones
Leaning towards audacity
when accused of rapacity
Feigning incapacity to mask
one's duplicity
or
Felicity under the greenwood tree
lying next to me
Promethean in her adoption
of alien virtues
With her spirit unbowed and
her bodice unbound
She and I in communion
devoutly unmawkish
No hawkish sentimentality
muddying the waters
Once indivisibly frozen in
normative cubiform avatars
Which I formerly mistook for
the cold comfort of theophany
(minos - april 2007)
