her silhouette
ben goertzel
Somehow on.
Baby, baby.
Nohow on.
Proceeding forwards, backwards, sideways,
through imaginary dimensions,
nine-dimensional stairways,
transcendent jungles of truth,
sweetly invisible whys whys whys
The thing that always sticks within me is her silhouette
When she leaves the room, it hangs there for a moment,
retaining her shape
and an element of her energy,
a pure electrical field of woman-ness
It asks me this question:
I open my mouth to give it an answer, and then it disappears
I reach out to touch it, overwhelmed by desire, but where is it
anyway?
She comes back in again,
all solid and substantial,
warm breathing face, fleshy breasts,
walking thighs, stomach eminently caressable
and engaged in digestion,
brain propagating electric charge internally
leading her to illusions and songs –
and where did the silhouette go?
