Pulsing, panting
Erotic & maternal
Visual rhythm,
Textured sound
Expanding, contracting
Deafening & illuminating
Sex could not be grander than this;
Love not nearly so convincing.
How stay atheist in its midst?
How distrust Nature’s ritual as holy
And everything else right as it is?
But like these Northern Lights
Always beyond my simple grasp.
