Hi ww6
Be my body
let me be your soul
guiding
yielding
fulfilling
I long to be born in you
beyond and forever
and nourish you
as you nurture me which feels a little like an extended cliche.
unlike;
Yes
Love needs
a body
a voice
a phallus with phallus adding that extra push (forgive the pun)
the 2nd part i showed is a strong complete statement, the first one i showed needs to be of similar strength.
in a less sparse piece of writing we can use a few weaker words without them being noticed. but in a minimal piece like this all the words need to count. that said i don't think it needs much of edit to beef it up with some solid feeling and emotion
let me
guide
yield
fulfil you, or not as you see fit
thanks for the read and the first poem of many.

let me be your ocher shrub ochre shrub feels to innocuous, and i know of the ocher bust/tree in africa and the ochre bush in australia (i think) which makes me wonder where this fleshy valley is
let me

burst
manifold i like the word and see what meaning you attach to it and it is the correct usage, but i being male on;y ever see manifold as a machines part on a car engine. also, blossom and burst are actions in the tense used here and manifold is an article.

Yes
Love needs
a body
a voice
a phallus tell me about it
Love needs a sky-
nude and endless great line
Love transcends
beyond transparency
Love permeates
beyond permanence
Our love binds us
in blessed synchrony
Momentary and ageless-
concomitant
Pluck me from
h y p e r s i l e n c e
as I suckle on life force
Gently place me
in your womb
where nude sky and repetition
lovelorn earth mingle
your womb of rain
Wait for me to wake up
then we reign
we gain
All space
all time is
us
.
