in the centre of the poetry book:
? Human Sfynx?
A body .
.
a magical .
.
female .
.
?lion body? .
.
captured in time
guarding its temple .
.
royal and loyal
keeper of utmost deepest desires
Its belly .
.
its paws .
.
its claws
frozen .
.
stoned
nailed to the floor
the roof of its temple
awaiting
unknown .
.
desperate .
.
desires
A head
awakening
as the ears detect
the eyes inspect
what?s in front .
.
ahead
Sensing a male
like the most fairest tale
A masculine fruit .
.
hidden in time
forbidden like wine .
.
yet .
.
impossible to decline
Sighing .
.
eyes wide shut
the roof of its temple
choosing to move
Forbidden fruits .
.
melting
setting a tune
sharing an at most delicious ?human ? sfynx? juice
