[bodytext] => The rolling tan hills slope away gently tracing a certain soft patina in the dusty night; framed by black straight long stemmed flowers languid against my back-drop window; they look like night time sun-risings, against a curved topography which seems to move up and down slowly in the invisible summer breeze. They frame two dark pools which glitter in the subdued light. There are dimpled mounds too rounded, curving away. Further down the whole view indents, like a woman's body and curves back out again forming what I think of as two safe harbors on either side. Peninsula structures are next framing a mystery center which is barely visible but I can see heat eddies make the air wavy as they rise. All of this forms a wondrous curved archipelago. All of this is your body, the body I love, and you, who when our geography's meet, make the world new again every night.
