Yesterday we were mini menaces
filling every atom of air with creations,
was the only thing separating us from insanity
and we held each others hooves, claws, paws
before we were informed we’re human and
briefed on the hulla-baloo it entails
like how to intertwine throat-noises
around common consonants and vowels
and how to grip a pen with stubby-fingered hands
where before our limbs branched out
we tickled each other to the ground
and blew our visions into the lip of the wind
then whispered to each other of our long-winded worlds-
those early intimacies we scratch away with a penny, is it ok
to say I remember? those e-very-thing walks, or should I deny
my eyes spent most of their open-time gaping at
your plum-dark eyes- from their very first gaze
there you were, through all that light and
when all that darkness comes to tide
Bounding through skyscrapers aligned with the sky
Working the cogs and levers, stinking of the grime of pay-check life
And I am tracing in your tracks
Trekking closer towards you by the year
And when I see you every- now, every -then
the world has touched us.
Words drip flat off of our water-proof skin
but feelings from another how they rub off on us,
how they sink , in , stink.
Like light-rays, through our organs and into our hearts chamber
Where I now keep you in and
we want more than we can say, us ‘intellectuals’
when we float within each others space- laid flat
next to one another in the static of silence,
our minds seem to saturate it out of habit- still : with
two frayed falcons soaring through a current in the sky- maybe
two doe deers prancing in thick layers of snow- perhaps
two merry minnows nesting in a warm reef-
Because I understand - we always knew
love performed in the rawest way.
