Love Poem: When You Become

Written by: Joseph Adler

When You Become

when you become
every woman
and I become every
man
time will stop
and duality will end
but until that time
play with me in the sand
let me lift your
sun drenched body
in the Aegean sea
and spin you round
in divine buoyancy
cover you with clay
crafted in antiquity
rest at the gate of your
womb
in unbearable ecstasy
till we tumble into the
Valley
of endless
possibility
as you become
all earth
and I become
all seeds
then this moment
will drop
into infinity
but until then
let me taste
wine grapes
split between
your swollen lips
and the green scent
of Corfu
upon the curve 
of your hips
as my sword 
and your bowl
make molten
romance
cascading
rearranging
into the bliss
of our 
second chance
