Yesod sh’b Yesod*
Here we are, joined body to body,
spirit to spirit
most of our breathing years

as we move around the center
of our mutual
gravities, always drawn toward each other,

through beauty, our hungry passions
and curiosities,
our occasional refusals

to agree to disagree, always circling
the fire spirit, 
flowing-water, thirst quenching

spirit, the seed filled earth-being spirits
the light and dark
spirits we are as we inhale-exhale

the breath of all being and joyfully sing
and re-sing
into being our joined selves.
