I sit by the water
I came here to writ
I excavate for meaning in your images
Imagining a narrative
A connection between two souls
I stare at the sun
Brilliant light reflected by the river
Manifesting fractals of light
Fractals reverberating in ecstasy
I feel exhilaration
Transmuting this energy
My mind pivots from the water
Taking in your images
Synergy both emotional and erotic
Powers hypnotic
Fierce and jaw dropping
You cradle one another
Nurturing affection and vulnerability
Captivated by psychotropic electricity
I feel the water again
Lights oscillating to psychedelic rhythms
Channelling the treble
Grounded by the bass
I see your bodies in this water
Energetically transposed
Reflecting its luminosity
Amplifying carnal ferocity
This is my offering
Verses to expand on this moment
Verses to dilate time
Amidst escalating polyvalent apocalypse
Forget your perfect offering
Just ring the bell that you can ring
There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light gets in

The final stanza is derived from a Leonard Cohen song titled ‘Anthem’
