As Two Go Down In The Moonlight

              Where the peach-fleshed sun takes its final bow

      And where the curtain of darkness is drawn in awesome contrast
                to the pale glow of the moon and the stars

         And where the croakers and the crickets and the cicadas
                    lead the night in a chorus undone

   And where the people and the unpeople are drawn to the water's edge
                           by midnight magic

Down where the curtain repeats itself betwixt the ripples of a sleeping lake

 Where hands are held grippingly, and eyes drink souls, and tensions mount

                           In another world

      Where steaming bodies and lips collide, melting inhibitions

        Where an erotic gasp is heard above other normal sounds
      just before silence falls...as two go down in the moonlight
