taste and see 2


By Jonathan Hunter-Kilmer

my tongue inundated

thoughts gladly compelled

thirst bliss never sated

tears pierced through heart felled

I fill Your flesh coming

and wisdom in words

like dripping fresh fruit

savory meatmeal make thirds

the sauce overflowing my lips suck slurp greed

for more of what strums in my essence lute creed

I listen awash simmer glimmer grow sweet

all else seems at best useless dust at my feet

drowned breathing and swallowing berries abound

burst flavor then pulsar a basket bright sound

the whisper that floats still from Word uttered then

the universe exapnds collapsing again

all is as was will be in that disk of bread

You are, Sweet, Beloved, intimate world no end
