Can you remember your Transformation?

 

A poem exploring that your Desire awakening is not simply a moment in youth—it is a psychic transformation, a personal myth. 

It asks the reader not just to recall an event but to confront the moment they became capable of deep passion and self-discovery.

In essence, it's a poem about the birth of desire, expressed as a spiritual, emotional, and artistic metamorphosis.

Where the text reads like a lyrical meditation on visceral awakenings, framed in almost mythic, spiritual language. 

Blending romantic nostalgia, mythological allusion, and literary reference to elevate a personal experience into something archetypal.

So the question is, can you remember your Transformation?

(A lone voice whispers)

Do you still remember your first encounter with your libido? 

That wild exhilaration, a deep dive into the unknown.

Your own emotional Armageddon, climbing the Hill of Megiddo.

That first exquisite kiss leading to home base.

As ecstasy consumed your whole psyche and invaded places William Butler Yeats would have loved to write about.

Using such romantic, lyrical phrases.
