Lion Head Mesa tenth

ramesses rolled to face her, settling his cheek against the edge of the cushioning pelts. they floated, he and she, for two minutes, for twenty; he lost all semblance of time. but he heard his voice again, saying: "i am. and i am a godhead. and i am also only a man, tierra."
only a man to which all good things had been given, to whom all blessings flowed.
ramesses knew he could move now; she might accept. but he did not; he accepted the flesh of a man and its limitations. 
and still his eyes were upon her, darkened and dilated with the effect of the sweet potion.
