As powerful lightning
discovering for a split second
I see
in the wide dark expanse
of sightless togetherness
in breathless suffocation
in sudden reflection and
guttural moaning agony
not you and me-
some strangers
wearing our faces and bodies
feigning fathomless oneness-
a second only but
together again and again
until we no longer can-
I find us
in fury, fire and storm-
the rising head
in its feverish charge
asserting and re-asserting
in blissful ignorance
that it is in fact its own foe
and that getting nearer union
it paves way for opposite.
