Carnal Apple, Woman Filled, Burning Moon,
Carnal apple, Woman filled, burning moon,
dark smell of seaweed, crush of mud and light,
what secret knowledge is clasped between your pillars?
What primal night does Man touch with his senses?
Ay, Love is a journey through waters and stars,
through suffocating air, sharp tempests of grain:
Love is a war of lightning,
and two bodies ruined by a single sweetness.
Kiss by kiss I cover your tiny infinity,
your margins, your rivers, your diminutive villages,
and a genital fire, transformed by delight,
slips through the narrow channels of blood
to precipitate a nocturnal carnation,
to be, and be nothing but light in the dark.

Written By Pablo Neruda
Sorry I stop doing NFPF. Others caught on to that trend, so I slowed down that process, and just enjoyed my favorite poets in the comforts alone at home. I've become a big fan of Pablo Neruda work, that's it's hard for me not to post his effortless classics.
