SUPREME


my blood turns to milk

my blood pulls the moon

 

the heart tween my thighs

pumps

 

H E A T

 

I die in seasons

I’ll resurrect in the spring

the in breath comes from

the bottom of the out breath

and I’m (proud) whole

enough to let you

leave

 

women are manufactured

to let a dying thing

leave the body

 

and I (always)  never

know how

to let you leave.
