Under the sheet of transparent wool we
slipped, she and I. Even our heads were sunk
under, and the lamp illumined the stuff over
us. Thus I behld her dear body in a mysterious
light. We were closer to one another, more
free, more intimate, more naked. 'In the same
shirt,' she said. We remained with our hair up
in order to be less covered, and the perfumes
of the two women rose from their two natural
censers in the bed's narrow space. Nothing in
the world, not even the lamp, saw us that night.
Which of us was lover only she and I could tell.
But men shall know nothing thereof.

wow, a fantastic write from a view not his own... i guess this would sound as though he is fantasizing as most men do about two woman, but i don't think thats what he was after with this write... women are sacred and their actions are wonderful and men don't deserve us? maybe thats just my feminist side coming out, but i think there was a touch of that in this piece, especially when considering the last four lines... a great write
