Giving

Watch how the slow rhythmic
movement of my hand
can make your body move
as your desire grows slowly,

spreading out from my fingers
like the strings from the puppeteer.
I feel no power, no control, no victory
although I could leave you suspended

between desire and its satiation,
between wanting and coming,
journeying, but never arriving.
But that is not what I want.

I only want what you want
and my need is only your need
and my satisfaction lies
in this gift given and received.
