ANNE SEXTON

When man enters woman

When man,enters woman,

like the surf biting the shore,

again and again,

and the woman opens her mouth with pleasure

and her teeth gleam

like the alphabet,

Logos appears milking a star,

and the man

inside of woman

ties a knot

so that they will

never again be separate

and the woman

climbs into a flower

and swallows its stem

and Logos appears
and unleashes their rivers.



This man,
this woman
with their double hunger,

have tried to reach through

the curtain of God

and briefly they have,

through God

in His perversity

unties the knot.
