Sex Teaches Us
Please be patient while audio loads
beyond fear and hesitation
into the pure urge of sex in the body
the body surrenders open,
becomes utter receptivity,
drinks in pleasure with every cell,
and opens, opens, opens,
to receive it all:
all the trembling Life,
all the shimmering Love,
every whisper, every glance and touch,
of a delectable mystery beyond understanding.
The soul too may remember its ways
and resonate,
surrender open, become utterly receptive,
drink in the Spirit’s pure freedom,
and open, open, open
to receive it all,
nothing at all… but the trembling Life,
the shimmering Love,
every whisper of what is real,
every glance of Light and touch,
drawing it deeper and wider,
wilder and wiser,
into a mystery beyond understanding.
