full moon


"All I have to do 
is hear his name 
and every hair on my body 
just bristles with desire.

When I see 
the moon on his face,
this frame of mine
oozes sweat like a moonstone.

When that man
as dear to me as breath
steps close enough to me
to stroke my neck,

the thought of jealousy 
is shattered in my heart
that's only sometimes
hard as diamond."

- compiled by Amaru in the 7th century
