A Sonnet From Marilyn Hacker's Love, Death, and the Changing of the Seasons

Tuesday, January 18, 2011

Marilyn Hacker

First, I want to make you come in my hand while I watch you and kiss you,
and if you cry, I'll drink your tears while, with my whole hand,
I hold your drenched loveliness contracting. 
And after a breath, I want to make you full again, and wet. 
I want to make you come in my mouth like a storm. 
No tears now. 
The sum of your parts is my whole 
most beautiful chart of the constellations--
your left breast in my
mouth again. 
You know you'll have to be your age. 
As I lie beside you, cover me like a gold cloud, 
hands everywhere, at last inside me where I trust you, 
then your tongue where I need you. 
I want you to make me come.
