Fire.
Paper.
Scissors.
Stone.
The fire burns the paper.
The paper covers the stone.
The scissors cut the paper.
The stone crushes the scissors.
A child's game
So they tell me.
But when a man covers a woman
He is consumed by fire––
Each lover
Is all men loving all women
Burning with life.
Making love out of godly necessity––
Linking man with woman
woman with life
Life with earth
Earth with time.
Fire.
Paper.
Scissors.
Stone.
