The Wedding
I kiss Milarepa on the lips
his face nettle leaf green
lips ruby as sundown
Seven eyes behold him
three on my forehead
one on each hand
one on each foot
a goddess to contend with
His skin and bones dance across my heart
He makes verse to me all night
Enlightenment dawns
I clothe myself in peacock
feathers and emerald silk
wear headdress of pearls
coral and turquoise
An orange haired deity
chuckles in the corner
as earth wind fire
sea and psyche sweep us
toward nirvana...rapture
ohmmm –
