the  unnamed  one 

i am the available passion of the world

eros flames this heart and belly

ecstasy floods

in streams of liquid fire

through these veins and arteries

swells this flesh

creation of a newly emergent and unnamed one

 i am conceived

thrust forth

i am the fierce and radical unveiling of a new order of being

i am the blood of the east in the wine of a new pressing

santiago california beijing and the cape

dissolve

in a bright new vintage

 a bold virility expands outward

through the atomic structure of this body

swollen with the blood

the wine of new life pressing

i am the virile uprightness of the world and its people

good and evil disappear into my liquid presence

 i am neither good nor evil

there is no choice

i am neither permission nor restraint

i neither abandon nor withhold

i am penetrating

i am fertile

i am whole

 i am the thrust of the divine

the energy of a new unqualified intercourse

i am the ecstasy of the whole body

a seminal firing in the womb of a new order

i am the available passion of the world
