It will hurt
One can’t be sure how badly
Certainly, it will be

U n c o m f o r t a b l e
Say it fully, let
Every last syllable leave your mouth

It will hurt before
pain becomes obscured
by beauty, & beauty by
maddening moments of joy

You’ll soar from the motion
Tapping into pleasure centers
unknowable & unknown

You will feel & feel things
deeply, then release them freely.
You will act as though you are water
