Voluptuaries

                                                                  

 

Daybreak and I awaken,

Side by side, naked.

Sunrise is last night's satisfied mistress.

I, a spent dream, dress in silence,

Leave morning to her voluptuous wiles.

She just might dive back into sleep's womb.

I have too many unknown miles to fly

Before losing myself to night's enticements

For the millionth-and-one time in my life.

And even if I did decide to stay,

Who could guarantee we'd recognize each other

Or that what I'd miss,

By circumventing fate's dictates,

Would be the lesser of destiny's pleasures?
