‘There was a time when I slept with ‘high class’ and expensive prostitutes
and I loved their beauty
and the excitement and pleasure that surrounded our occasions together.
But then, after a while
I felt that I could not get enough pleasure
nor give enough to them.
And, for this reason I often felt unsatisfied
and came to ask this question
of myself:
What Baptism do you bring?
Only a saint can lie with these beautiful ladies
For when the bodies limit is come
then what good news
do you have?
When the question of their own gift has come
when their striving is considered
What star can you bequeath them
for a guide?
You talk of the limit of all flesh
But do you live and breathe spirit?
Your books and knowledge are useless
Speak with your body in light
And if you cannot . . .
What baptism do you bring?
