Radha – A Song Of Radioactive Love

… and i can feel Your eyes on mine,

pouring Your

vitriolic love into the delicate

tracery of blue veins beneath 

my pale alabaster skin.

(One look at Your dark face, and

each nerve in my scalp

crackles at Your abysmal beauty, black against a

moonless sky!)

Your nefarious flute, radiating wave upon wave

of poisonous

melody through the sombre air, impels me,

inexplicably, to

drag myself against my will from

my conjugal bed

(Whatever have You done to me!),

and steal out into the night,

into Your ever waiting arms.

Your deathly kisses

leave a drizzle of honey and wormwood

on my parched, peeling lips,

my upturned chin.

Your beguiling tongue, traces tiny licks of 

fire on my slender throat,

flicks the little hollow

at its base, moves over my collar bones

down the soft creamy skin of my chest,

climbs the rising, throbbing,

swell of my breast, and

curls around the nipple, savoring the

desire blooming rampant

in its pointed peak.

Like butter beside an open flame,

my limbs melt

in pure surrender to Your reptilian embrace,

that coils around me like the hooded monster

You quelled in the black, foaming waters

of the infernal river! Our bodies, moving together

in perfect rhythm, gather momentum,

and wracked with pleasure our frenzy mounts, 

and rises to a crescendo,

and explodes in the

throes of an apocalyptic

Climax!

(The universe fades away beyond

the blast radius of our all-consuming

communion. There is nothing and no one

barring You and I,

gasping, breathless,

wrapped around each other.)

Who, or what, can now save me from combusting

in Your cataclysmic,

Forbidden love?

Beloved! i stopped fighting

when You stooped to conquer.

i laid down my arms,

cradled Your infant self

against my aching heart,

carried You deep into the mystical arbour,

the holy sanctum

hidden in the darkest heart of the forest,

to the altar, prepared for us, for our eternal

and predestined union.

Forever craving Your touch,

i wound every fiber of my soul

tightly, in and around

the toxic neural jungle of Your

divine Mind. Waking and asleep,

every minute of every hour,

i dream of You.

Warped beyond nature by my desire,

i am weaving an

everlasting braid of

fire burning in my belly,

for Beloved, I'm hungrier than ever,

to feel our bodies fuse,

(skin on skin, mind against mind)

welded together

in the nuclear furnace

of Your devastating love!

Beloved, i belong to You, 

and You to me.

i'm falling from on high,

falling into the depths of Your

radiant smile (dazzling

like earthlight on the moon),

swallowed up in Your

eyes of densest smoke!

(Or perhaps I'm falling up.

Up or down, it matters little!)

A billion solar flares cannot dim

the moonlight on our pillow,

nor the stench of our secret

passion (concealed in that

grove of sacred mysteries)

hide the fragrance of sweet

jasmine, waving beyond

our window.

And now that You are

gone, the world has heaved

over on its axis and left me behind,

weeping, bereft of Your touch.

(each molecule, every atom of me 

aches for each of Yours!)

But no matter, Beloved! i shall wait, though each day

equals a billion years, the mere half-life of Your

Radioactive love,

in barren solitude!
