The Lust of the Gods

In your vineyards, I walk every evening

I secretly adore you

I tease your heartbeat

I drink the water

I am reborn thousands of times each day

Your taste

Your fragrance

Your power over my soul

That occupation of the heights of imagination

It’s all you

I yearn more and more

A blissful ecstasy

The lust of the gods

Between your toes

Reaching for the heavens
