Kneel

Kneel before me, legs spread wide.
And tell me how it feels inside.
Raise your chin, cast down your eyes.
And leave behind your former lives.

Shoulders back, your palms upturned.
Upon your thighs as you have learned.
Arch your back, and still your mind.
Your place beneath me here defined.

Cos you are mine now, don't you see?
But nothing good is ever free.
Give up your body, mind, and pride.
Leave no small corner left to hide.

I'll have it all, but take my time.
To explore your facets, and to find
The secret places held within
I'll make my home beneath your skin.

And when at last your fears are gone,
You'll scarcely know what lingered on.
For all that once you called your own
Will bloom beneath my hand alone.
