Venice Drowning

venice breathing
sexual heires of sex and violence
in the purple evening silence
venice dreaming of a partner

velour arms with breasts of marble
from the cradle to the table
coax this naked treasure
from your saviour

come swim into my love
come swim into my life

divine blasphemer
tempting over beads of jism
with a scarlet catechism
her lips will answer (oh, her lips will answer)

how to be the perfect stranger
the perfect lover
wanting and as you'll discover
giving and as you'll discover
being

come swim into my love
come swim into my life

enter this sublime erosion
venice drowning in emotion

the body stirs
and is reanimated
but only briefly
and that life is very brief

venice drowning
venice drowning
venice drowning
venice drowning
