Courtship
Earth cannot go up to Heaven,
but Heaven comes calling all the time.
Heaven knocks on Earth’s door
and asks her to dance.
He takes both her hands
and spins her parabolically.
Earth gasps, Earth is flush.
He is so big he surrounds her,
coming over her with ah! bright wings.
Is she in him or he in her?
He is the messenger and she is the tomb.
He is the wings and she is the womb.
