Tantric Sonnet

Tantric Sonnet I have done my mudras with tree patience. I have said my sutras without ceasing. I have sat under your electric light, projecting colors into my chakras. I have hummed "oum" with you, my Taoist fix. I have chanted cattle sounds for hours. I have tried to gather my ch'i for you, doing Baung-Saos and Tong-Saos into you. I find your tantric ways enlightening: I have entered your Light Gate and shuddered. But I miss just our foreheads touching, just some of me inside some of you, my arms spreading yours, not Stork Spreading Wings, just the draw of my sinew on your simple flesh. Wm. Vandoren Wheeler ...
