METHEXIS

Elizabeth Bishop: Pansies, 1960, watercolour and gouache.

You know how I feel when I write?

As if I bring to the market
pieces of my being and sell them!

I am ashamed! Ashamed! Pain!

It's so Persistent in here!

I talk to my internal self 

about what I see from you

nodding and challenging me 

O'Brother! I sell my soul!

For a look at your

seductive unknown heart

Alone I cringe to the end

so I  delightfully offer to myself
the shivering I share with you in there!

Methexis in your revealing

 feelings celebration!
