Denise Levertov - The Ache Of Marriage
Work rating: Low

The ache of marriage:

	thigh and tongue, beloved,
	are heavy with it,
	it throbs in the teeth

	We look for communion
	and are turned away, beloved,
	each and each

	It is leviathan and we
	in its belly
	looking for joy, some joy
	not to be known outside it

	two by two in the ark of
	the ache of it.
