| | | He. | From “Women” Studies in the Erotic Emotion
If I should touch you now— | |
| |
| She. | Flame would follow your hands, | |
| Flame upon hair and brow | |
| Curling in little strands. | |
| My body is light with love | 5 |
| As a little sun-drunk tree. | |
| My body is pierced through— | |
| |
| He. | With me—with me! | |
| |
| She. | Say over again, again, | |
| Anything wild and sweet. | 10 |
| |
| He. | Shall we make magic names, | |
| Queer, to repeat? | |
| |
| She. | Crumple this moment up, | |
| Toss it against a star! | |
| |
| He. | Your body is in my arms! | 15 |
| |
| She. | Yet I know not where we are! | | | | |
