ANIMALIA
fever dreams
i want to get lost
in an afternoon of music with u
to eat the strange desserts
a full moon is feverish
and i am dreaming of your
breasts
i gave up trying to marry a man
so i married the Moon
f r u i t s.
i want to go sing
lost songs with you
into the lion’s soft mouth
pluck leaves from a bush
burning
laugh into a sun,
toiling
while we
make up worlds
i want honey and rain
i want body, the wisdom
i want the force of flesh
i want freedom and song
i want my feathered heart
and bleating tongue
i want the dancing gait of god,
undone
