LAST NIGHT

LAST NIGHT

last night
unexpectedly

against the odds
out
   of the blue
against
the grain

we
   became lovers

as a result
   physically. philosophically.
are
   welded together
possibly forever

and in retrospect
lying in bed, in your arms
swear you
    took advantage of me
took me
by surprise

got bliss blitzkrieged
by you
      caught and captured

bombed, stranded
by your beauty

the two
of us suffused
blended
together

one movement
in a symphony, one connection

so complete
movement of movements

both of us
left hanging on for dear life
