Advance!
Politics rumbles on,
disturbing minds, degrading
bodies, dislocating lives.
To kiss you,
to share secrets,
to share secretions
of the flesh
of the brain,
to shower together,
to hold hands,
these have always
been daring deeds.
Once more, once
more, once more.
Here? Yes, there.
Oh, once more.
The more danger,
the more love.
