To Each His Dulcinea

To each a secret hiding place / Where he can find the haunting face.

"The garden was combing her hair and putting on her earrings. The house was full of dancing creatures, not male, not female but both, two lovers in one body. The books downstairs were reciting their poetry to each other, rubbing together, whispering through their leather covers. Wine was flowing through the water pipes. You caught my heart in your hands like a leaping fish."
