Lust 
      This species is split! 
        Aristophanes 
      What ache am I for? 
        Which direction do you blow? 
        Which petal in this search peach and pink orange and green fluttering leaves lush rose of the winds? 
        Who are you standing in the garden one cocked hip who do you want me to be my hands crumbling up clods of black earth? 
        Dark lover dirty lover bite down hard on my nipples harsh cracked and sweaty lips 
        like the day you were born 
        make me bleed. 
        That was the day that splintered 
        our square shaved head with the shaft staff fashioned from the broken spade.  
        That was the day we grew back up split and put together I will love you but 
        be myself? 
        don't make me laugh 
        a filigree of broken bones  
        my longing is terrible.  |
