Making Love in Another Language

Are we hushed into silence at the dizzying
couplets we make with our softest love lips?

When we talk deep into the night using thighs,
arms, buttocks, drawing long languid syllables

down our backs, here and here and there—
wet melodies while we speak meaning

and thought borrowed from your Neruda,
and my Whitman. Through spinning patterns,

I take you like a vowel into my mouth,
parse you into words that are scribbled

just outside the lines. Toes, dance, twilight, mouth,
bead, shell—Darling, this is your first language lesson.

Very clever, dear Laurie, with the word "couplets" in the second line. I don't suppose you could write this one in anything but couplets. *smile*
