Imagining two bodies
becoming one
delights the mind;
two bodies actually
becoming one
is less delightful,
more difficult.
The transition
from ideal to real
defeats most.
Imagining and effort,
not always the same.
Spirit and flesh
do not merge easily.
Often it is easier
to meander on
to the next imagining
and dream away
your chance at love.
