Two women watch me
From the nightstand
One divine in a celestial cloak
The other human wearing jeans
To the first, I dedicate sexual prayers
And trace the other with sanctified hands
The human deserves my love and desire
The divinity is a black hole
Into which I plunge
with bestial yearning
A cruel devotion
Desire
They both know and smile
They always smile
and watch me.
