Amorpho ~ Fly 2
there's a pearl growing in my mouth
I am under construction
bend with me these tall grasses
smooth away the shifting sand
did you think I was easy to bear
the weight of? did you think I'd
be your own undoing when your hands
held me naked with your need?
blood thirsty.....you and I are blood thirsty
dragons of the night, cutting teeth, splitting bones
with the hammer of our authority, do not
take my marrow without due consideration
let not this corpse flower die in vain, die without
being held on your tongue, round and smooth,
beautiful, now placed around your neck like a
chain, linking litanies of the moon rising.
