It seemed so natural
for us to lie, together
under the watchful eye
of the weeping sky
as it kissed the earth;
implicit absolution
for a mundane act
of pure recreation.

As heaven and earth
you and I are inseparable.
Though we touch the ephemeral
our tears flow through eternity
soaking our flesh in luxuria
to quench nature's thirst
for sexual intoxication.
Love's illusion evaporates;
one fleeting sky in the cloud
of this heavenly hell on earth.
