Before we enter the land of Canaan
We’ll take a naked swim in the blue Mediterranean
And a dip in the baptismal water of the river Jordan
And get converted to our secret religion.
I’ll make you my devi and high Priestess
Who’ll ask for nothing but a pure sacrifice of kisses.
My Beatrice……my Laura …….. my Light Empyrean!
Grant me a little niche in your holy pantheon;
This is your Dante’s, your Petrarch’s sole petition.
