St. Irenaeus


once I accepted God

as the one and only


light of my life,

my body went numb.


no more kisses

under my earlobes,


no more hands clutching

at the back of a knee.


I wheeled my heart

to the edge and let go.


I stand here panting,

sweating, wondering


how I will function without

the heat of my universe.
