slowly
the way a cigarette is burning
she is drawing closer to me
a bottle
with a hardened swallow
instead of a blooming rose
she is looking with enmity
screws up her eyes
or it seems so
drawing closer low
under the spine of the bridge
steaming the brain
into some other space
galaxies
irrevocable
like blood on the blade of the knife
reaching deep into the cave
coming against the soul
mortally
she
is drawing closer naked
deprived of the mercy
dimensions
sickly awareness
of the world
the goal of existence
in which bars and tracks
agonizing dead-loop ascents
and the shiver
perishing only in colours
only in the water surface
in the last thread
fading right through the fingers

Temptation The Ultimate
