Transubstantiation

He pulls her to his lips.
Flesh and blood stain them.
This time is sacred,
Filling a holy need.
This moment of surrender
As she bleeds.

This Eden
by Sander Roscoe Wolff ©
[after Jose Francisco Borges]
This Eden lives in our hearts.
Divine embraces expanding,
like this moment,
into eternity.

The Tunnel Of Love
by Sander Roscoe Wolff ©
I met a woman at a traveling show
Who stood in line at the Tunnel of Love
Complaining:
“I don’t understand why its always my fate
That every boy I meet is a freak or a geek!
I’m not pretty, but I’m not plain…”
I swear I’d heard the same refrain
From someone I knew in a bad dream once.

The Firefly

(A Bar Just Off Hollywood)
Red vinyl booths.
Small tables, too small, with red vinyl chairs.
Jukebox glowing in the dim light.

This pink-faced blushing bride
explodes with wonderment,
joyously embracing the mystery
unfolding in each moment.

The Certainty Of Easter
by Sander Roscoe Wolff ©
A flightless bird takes wing.
The darkness recedes to reveal a new day.
Questions that, once, loomed large
in the shadows of my consciousness
are now swept away, and
in their place:
Emptiness.

Patience
by Sander Roscoe Wolff ©
Speak clearly.
From the heart it comes,
Touch is filled with fire.
Understanding follows,
Conspiring in secret dreams
The conquest of desire.
