HARVEST DATE
Meeting a small fraction
Of her army of lovers
Harvesting redbud
Red hairs pulled by branches
Cackle giggle
Past barbwire brambles
And mountain mahogany
Pockets of pepperwood
All manner of triggers
And levers
To take
The blood sacrifice
Tripped in
The medicine field
Raked
By a thick branch
Nature is
A sharp-toothed dog
Bubbles as thick as leather
In the bogwater
Like bull kelp heads
The willow stand
Await their turn
To dance
...

(YOUR LOVE AS FOOD)
Oh!
How you ruined me
For low standards—
A harvest table
Outdoor feast
Down the dirt road
From a gas station's
Plastic-wrapped
Cheeseburgers
How you ruined me
For low standards—
A harvest table
Outdoor feast
Down the dirt road
From a gas station's
Plastic-wrapped
Cheeseburgers

There are two ways
Of holding hands
One that rescues
One that bands
TO GATHER
Of holding hands
One that rescues
One that bands
TO GATHER

WHEN I'M THERE
I tend to get so wrapped up in her hair
I am afraid of wolves but love her Grace
Her gaze is only on me when I’m there
There is upon this earth no better face
I am afraid of wolves but love her Grace
Her gaze is only on me when I’m there
There is upon this earth no better face

Maybe I would be cold
Without your cuddle—
How can I know
When you are so hot
Like the sun
To a marmot
HOW CAN I KNOW?
Without your cuddle—
How can I know
When you are so hot
Like the sun
To a marmot
HOW CAN I KNOW?

ASK
I am no demanding lover
I ask to be adored
By the one I adore
And count as bonus
Anything more
I ask to be adored

I had gotten used
To being invisible*
And then you saw me
*NOT A SUPERPOWER

*SPARKS*
A dog barked
I held your heart
Took off my hat
And lit a fire
I held your heart
Took off my hat
And lit a fire

I knew what
I was getting
Into
A dark
Yet soothing
Mystery
A cave of
Wonders
To wander through
As you were
Creeping
Into me
No answers
Easily found
Are here
No matching
Footfalls
Tread for tread
Yet when you're far
You still feel
Near
And all roads
Lead into
Your bed
I was getting
Into
A dark
Yet soothing
Mystery
A cave of
Wonders
To wander through
As you were
Creeping
Into me
No answers
Easily found
Are here
No matching
Footfalls
Tread for tread
Yet when you're far
You still feel
Near
And all roads
Lead into
Your bed

ESOTERIC PLUMBING
All through the night
I feel the sound of you
And want to jiggle it
I feel the sound of you
And want to jiggle it
