WINDOW ON INFINITY
In shimmering ebb of evening's
closing tide I kneel and kiss
Your jeweled footprint
Above a trillion super stars illumine
the temple dome and a crescent
moon floats near the crown of my
head I've forgotten my name
and the way home long ago washed
out to sea
There is no existence apart from
You
I wander the dazzling shoreline a
cobra draped around my neck
I am Shiva the thousand petaled
One
