First Contact

FIRST CONTACT

If I open to you
Will you hurt me?
Or will we two be discovering
Brand new kinds of play?

Are we destined
To be known as
That Astonishing Couple
Or will we act out Darwinian
Predator and Prey?

Will we be so overwhelmed
By the humdrum of being
That we miss each moment's role
As a step on the Way?

Or will each moment teach us
A new piece of music
That our bodies will move to
But words cannot say?
