SEISMOGRAPH UNDER MANTRAP IN A SOUNDPROOF ROOM
I am drunk from the gaze of this beautiful halves:
the poetry I'm tabooed from divorcing
since I've vow never to iron out my heart
from the sheath of her muse.
I watched my heartbeat recites to the rhythm of her R&B and Soul music;
whispering concoction into my tongue-shape ear &
biting my lips wailing to catch a second breath from her tongue.
I watched her smashing loneliness to summon her comradeship:
her fingers softening my tough body part
to select love portions, eyers conversation will be rich.
from the lustered grace of a puff adder,
I surrendered to her lips sync ripe in my lips;
the winged poetry tracing my handprints on her skin.
like a calculus, I elegance my body into parameters
gliding her torso. & because I'd preferably just be the brush,
she'd slick like a paint photosynthesizing her Bacchus on my chapped lips.
It's hard to war against this untamed poetry
straining my body to be comely & wild.
how do I say that I'm her equation where
x+y= 1
the censers of ‘my—kind—of—man
&
the language of the gods?
how do I ?
so where I am now, it's impossible to unearth a seismograph positioned underneath the earthtongue because, he whose heart is entwined with is a beast.
