In the rites of ancient Greece
Ambrosia and wine
A delicate gown of silk
Dionysian nights enthralled in bliss
A passage that leads deeper
Into the folds of your Eleusinian mystery
Purifying ablutions in the flickering flames
Venus spiraling revolution
Sidereal orbital mien
Radiant
Resplendent
Rising in the crashing waves
Intoxicated with the promise of freedom
Bewitched by drink
To have loved and kissed in the unknown
Ecstatic by starry heaven
We woke up in her conch shell at dawn
Then wrote our names in the sand
