The Initiation––Dorothy Walters
The Initiation
(for Genevieve)
When it happens,
you will not know what it is.
You will go trembling and afraid
into the arms of an unseen lover,
one who will hold you tightly
in a close embrace.
You will sigh
and give in,
relinquish all control.
You will let it have its way
with you.
You will not know if
it is male or female,
but you will not care.
The rapture will extend
until night itself
groans in joy.
In the morning you
will realize
that you have just made
love with god,
that this is what you
have always longed for,
that you yourself
are the god within.
