You have boundless plains to share.
I have fervor burning across geographies:
Your Sydney intersecting my Manila,
my Orient pearl aching for your Great Barrier Reef,
fingers stroking your dark hair as you discover me Down Under,
your Blue Mountains deep and snug in my Sierra Madre.
We will be two points coming together.
You be my steamy X and I be your mysterious Y.
We will Z ourselves succumbing to rapture. Wet, spent
twines on the bed, we toil with hearts and hands.
Your strong kangaroo legs home
in my firm Philippine Eagle claws.
Step on that cross-country flight
and in joyful strains let us sing
with our hungry lips and deft tongues.
Let us combine and behold the radiance, feel and throb
of our bodies fusing.
Sun and stars alight
in a beautiful land of love, o land of light
where we intersect.
