Don't lie
this evokes feelings
wants, body movements
Jump at it
swim in it
memorize
This face can make
the most beautiful body
 

 

 

Early morning body
is like marshmallow fluff
so light and sweet and full
peaceful, memorable
So cruel to let it go
daylight tells marshmallows
are not real
and ridden with corn syrup
Off to contrabass I go, then
 

 

 

I fluttered about
barely anyone knew I was there
Then came down one day
walked on eggshells
Now I want to see my prints so deep
that weather wouldn't cover them
How curious would that be
 

 

 

Coyote came and said
Underneath your knowledge
is a cosmos
thick like porridge
Stir it while dreaming
mix your fantasies in
pull them out, play
don't think
That's the whole recipe
he said
 

 

 

Sat here, being hugged
sometimes by smells that I don't like
by music, laughter, hurtful words
Sometimes by gifts of love & joy
by broken hearts and gentle touch
and weather, moods, by day & night
I'm always hugged, for I'm alive
Give in and be hugged, too
