animal planet
unknown

Like a flock of birds
 1
your hands swarm over me
 2
tattooed pale creature
 3
contorting at each peck.
 4
 
 
shut eyes glide over
 5
you the murmuring blind animal
 6
memorizing topographies
 7
for a future return.
 8
 
 
feed me the sap
 9
my stick of bamboo
 10
as i bob up and down
 11
half kangaroo.
 12
 
 
in waves of these sheets
 13
you pull my hair till i drown
 14
rotate and divide
 15
between crocodile jaws
 16
i rest
 17
paralyzed.
