Silent Orgasm
							By Jennifer Wilks Christian
														he's already sleeping,
							next to me
							in the dark
							when she draws me in.
							
							heat calls my hands
							to my golden, molten core
							fingers sending sexual magma
							burning through my blood
							as my breath begins a gallop of horses.
							
							stars fall through my body
							in an orchestral
							cellular
							meteor shower
							
							and I arrive:
							startled and open
							as an orange peacock.
							
							in one ecstatic, eternal moment
							I am wise beyond my years
							beyond my form
							and then,
							I am new again.
							
							my silent orgasm;
							leaving me glowing
							as a beacon in the night.
