In Our Private Universe

Like an apple tree
among the trees of the forest
is my lover among the young men.
I delight to sit in his shade,
and his fruit is sweet to my taste.
He has taken me to the banquet hall,
and his banner over me is love...
~ Song of Solomon 2

Not The Girl You Think You Are

On the day of the festival of our king
the princes become inflamed with wine,
and he joins hands with the mockers.
Their hearts are like an oven;
they approach him with intrigue.
Their passion smolders all night;
in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.
All of them are hot as an oven;
they devour their rulers.
All their kings fall,
and none of them calls on me.
~ Hosea 7

carved by a craftsman?
Or an image that teaches lies?
For the one who makes it
trusts in his own creation;
he makes idols that cannot speak.
