Poetry combining artwork of vivid color
Poetry of sensuality
Excerpt
I Know Your Toes
Two, thick as people
At the tips, but long, sensitive,
Afraid to grumble.
The smallest are sort of pawns,
Pulpit-less Jacks, curving
As if from bondage.
All ten together are a motley
Loveliness, wriggling little but
Given grass, a room of water,
They’d sing like seals, such
Flips & thumps from being worn
Rather flat on the bottom…
Still, miracles, each sole
Bends, rounds up, the silk
That knows bones, that cloth
Of duration which purrs,
Sometimes moans, softly,
If given to fingers of instant
Expertise. Darling, so much
Grows from here, extends,
A cathedral & it’s to worship,
Forget the world for this world
That connection’s centered
& thumbs circle out
