You Can'T Possess A Woman

You can't possess a woman, just her body, for a few moments, moments like bright flowers whose fragrance lingers awhile and whose memory is sweet. But such intense, classical moments, with arms around Beauty herself can even augment separation when you each return to your world with its habits and temperament and something comes up between you, some little point of contention which inflates, till it fills the room. The body's a meeting point with a special intensity, but only one meeting point, a parlour in the house of the Soul.
