Neruda Woman

full woman of Neruda
deep, oceanic, tanged with salt
warmth, radiant, magmic
woman of the mountain
her curves and edges
pine bristles and cornsilk
her hidden places
secret, dark caves
mystery of blood and bone
resilient, recieving all
absorbing steel and iron
tender synergy
holy catalyst of mankind
morphing violence to ecstasy
woman, void, eternally useful
embracing, mutable
channeled intimate fire
