and so women are the mystical
allurements of nature
stars of glittering eyes
clouds of inspiration
horizons the curves of their bodies
and so men the misshapen
images of the brute force that brought us forth
tending this reality with arms and legs
like rotten tree trunks and their spitting snakes
their heads and hearts like granite
and so this is the duality
that powers the cosmic swirl
of our fall from greater heights unimaginable
two wrongs making nothing right
