Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DDAE ADDF GHID AJAK DLMN LDAO PDAQ| Sometimes we collide tectonic plates merging | A |
| continents shoving crumpling down into the molten | B |
| veins of fire deep in the earth and raising | A |
| tons of rock into jagged crests of Sierra | C |
| - | |
| Sometimes your hands drift on me milkweed's | D |
| airy silk wingtip's feathery caresses | D |
| our lips grazing a drift of desires gathering | A |
| like fog over warm water thickening to rain | E |
| - | |
| Sometimes we go to it heartily digging | A |
| burrowing grunting tossing up covers | D |
| like loose earth nosing into the other's | D |
| flesh with hot nozzles and wallowing there | F |
| - | |
| Sometimes we are kids making out silly | G |
| in the quilt tickling the xylophone spine | H |
| blowing wet jokes loud as a whole | I |
| slumber party bouncing till the bed breaks | D |

| I go round and round you sometimes scouting | A |
| blundering seeking a way in the high boxwood | J |
| maze I penetrate running lungs bursting | A |
| toward the fountain of green fire at the heart | K |
| - | |
| Sometimes you open wide as cathedral doors | D |
| and yank me inside Sometimes you slither | L |
| into me like a snake into its burrow | M |
| Sometimes you march in with a brass band | N |

| Ten years of fitting our bodies together | L |
| and still they sing wild songs in new keys | D |

| One plus one equal one unknowable except | P |
| in the moment not convertible into words | D |
| not explicable or philosophically interesting | A |
| But it is And it is And it is Amen | Q |
