how many colors is the sound of you put to coral skies/dusk/in amber & midnite reds/ if i say yr name wd the words roll like pomegranates from everyone's mouth/ what language fits our needs we are so far gone/ we dont know sanskrit i dont want a saxophone/ i like greens say how to reach you so i am clear/ you'd know pearl harbour day/ bastille day/ the day they invaded cambodia/ is known to you/ all that death/ all the bleedin' & screams/ are clear/ say how to reach you with love/ i am like air now/ everywhere/ speakin/ whispers behind yr back around the corner/ talkin abt you/ upstairs in hushes/ yr name/ i stop you outside deux maggots/ i say simply/ darling/ give me yr tongue. -- From "Okra to Greens Again (Special Delivery)" |

i was cold / i was burnin up / a child & endlessly weavin garments for the moon wit my tears i found god in myself & i loved her / i loved her fiercely. |
