Jude this is one of my most favorite poems of yours now. I love everything about it. The whole poem is outstanding but this line "you touch objects hard to feel dreaming storms through liquid steel" that just blows me away!
Sensuously beautiful. The stark images here conjure up bedroom scenes in the imagination. Thank you for sharing Jude and MERRY CHRISTMAS.
May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom youlove,and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie
Yes, as Sage says, there is that "safe place" feel of the sensual, satiated afterglow about your coupled couplets here, Jude: the experience of deepest intimacy through the mutual sharing of what are, perhaps, the most mind-blowing "mysterious territories". I often wonder if it is really possible to fully know (and to know fully!) what another living being or thing in this universe is actually feeling/thinking at any given moment in time, but your words here indicate that such mysteries and phenomena exist between kindred spirits who know nothing of time/space divide. This could be both self-reflexive soliloquy and softly-mumbled pillow talk spoken during a sudden moment of lucidity and revelation. This is beautifully tender and soothingly reassuring to the primed heart. Love the tone and voicing. xx

best read on a thursday evening between the hours of 8 and 10PM. great poetry.
Jude, so much to take in with this amazingly written poem..Deeply felt, seeing through liquid steel brings me visions of almost clarity as to where this lover is going. It has a air of the mystic and the desire of Dante and the wisdom and passion of Rumi.
As you end this delicious poem, with
you're a soothing strange presence, capturing the fiery dawn,
it will suck to wake up from such a beautiful erotic dream. (Now that is Prime Time)!
Another fine masterpiece from the Master of Poetry!
To me, this feels like man v/s Mother Nature. The human perspective working against or with, for that matter, the forces that be, to create a certain balance, common ground and harmony of spirit. I really like this poem, Jude, it provokes interesting and profound images. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
