I said, "For you, I would peel open the clouds like new fruit I said, "you are the beautiful, distress of mathematics." She lips pursed as if her breath was too sweet and full for her mouth to hold. Her eyes sparkled like lights along the new city. Her skinny canvas for ultraviolet brushstrokes She made my heart beat in a now/now time signature. Like the new moon, like a diamond in the mines, like high noon to a drunkard, sudden.


I sat still in hopes that it would help my wings to grow, The sun beat between my shoulders like carnival drums. I stretched my arms towards the sky like blades of tall grass. and.I.could .was.to.beĪnd left to drown in his sunny afternoon, Our beautiful melody became wildly staccato. Made the coochie easy and the obvious invisible. The mistake was made, love slipped from my lips,ĭripped down my chin and landed in his lap,

Wide open, wide, loose like bowels after collard greens. The rain was falling and slowly and sweetly and stinging my eyes,Īnd I could see that he became my voodoo priest, I felt like cayenne pepper, red, hot spicy. We were nice and warm, no jacket, no umbrella, just warm.Īnd he would physically give me each and every one. Sweet on my mind like block parties and penny candy. Talked about Moses and Mumia, reparations, blue colors, memories of shell-topped Adidas. Took me on long walks to places where butterflies rest easy, Said he wanted to talk about my mission, listen to my past lives.
