fern capella

I want to
intoxicate people
run em high run em low
be the flow a course of havoc
numb brain cells cross pathways
bounce electrodes
like basketballs

Before bodies

what we were before bodies
is where you swim in
against struggle and the strain
of the pain of pushing out
and exposed, shout and pout

You are woolen, coarse and brusque,scraping away my residue, tough with broken teeth, chewing nails, your mother just like any other girl,  head first, knickers showing, no

i was one and chubby
a gift to my mother in yellow
and bald as oklahoma i blew
the candle out under the a-frame

we’re like snakes dug
in a hole together
cold blooded and lonely

she scrapes the last of it
out of her hands up inside
the gore fingers squishing

we are past terms, past the tropic of Capricorn,
we are the last moon come orbiting around,

We always knew it would come to this -
dividing lines, long time possessions spilt

quítame estas palabras de mí boca,

quiet kisses on my neck
i live for less and more than much
