My phallus,

that idol sculpted

in the furnace of desire,

is it devouring me whole?


Or is it swallowing too

my brain,

that astonishing galaxy

where thoughts drift

like restless stars?


Have I become, all at once,

prey to the hunger beneath the skin

and to the wonder of the universe?


Life trembles and blossoms

inside a storm

of unfinished doubts.
