I would translate myself,
my cantilevered heart
metaphored and similed
that you might know how you wake my body,
how you wake me in the core of the sun.
Unadorned thoughts and verse.

Short form really suits your style. The impact of a few short lines is at times immeasurable.It is one of the reasons why I took to writing tanka and haiku. It teaches one to think more compactly.
Thanks! Yes, I have found that my natural form is generally shorter, imagistic kind of poem where I am capturing an "emotional snapshot" of a moment through the juxtaposition of a few key images.
I would have difficulty writing any kind of narrative verse... :)
