Philadelphia, Pa
oh my lord, oh my soul
how long have i been thirsty in the desert of this world
thirsty for the taste of you?
oh my love
i have gone beyond
i have gone beyond the beyond
for you
i see the others praying in the temple
wearing white,
they cover their heads to pray
but have they known your secret kiss?
when i was a child you knew my most inner places
and showed me your most secret name
beyond the beyond
i have travelled
in my love for you
and now i stand outside the temple
eyes rimmed in black
lips rimmed in red
i look sideways at the pious worshippers
and go mad in the streets like a dog
hungry for you

Hope you are well Psalm. I suspect I speak for many people that I miss your laser'ed perspective on life's beauty, life's pain.
