The Loving
Concentric circles of gravitational pull a mantle of attraction hemmed in only by the space between the lover and the beloved the creatures generate this force unconsciously two felines circling each other in my dream obeying the stark desires of an instinct driven to the production of cubs and the attendant fresh kills life, death, inseparable in the loving eyes of the game engine we call God 1-IX-2023
Inspired by Rilke's poem Ich lebe and Helena Schoenhof's wonderful Die Löwin, which follows:
Da liegt sie im betrunken
von sanftem Schlummer, im Traum. 
Bewundert und stark, 
doch merkt sie es kaum. 
Anmutig springt sie
doch nur zum Saum
ihres gefühlten Zauns.
