damn

She speaks wordless epiphanies
whirling dervish breakbeat symphonies
     in everything

the bangles worn
   on the ankles
      of the feet
that are guiding her gliding
across the floor
          to come
             to me.


she speaks worldless epiphanies but
her touch
      is theophany
her touch
      is the knowledge of god for me

her touch

      is love.

    passionate and fair! wow, you really got me on this one. the shape of the stanzas and the format really caught me. and the words- really powerful. by the way: i love the title. "damn" is a good description of the blissful feelings you described. awesome poem.
