sucker

I'm a fad
I'm a goosewhite

walk on the ice, little webbers
  rubber sticks rubber suctions
they swish the cold out, could
I'm a variable
I'm a water
    Molly Stoddard, you're my hero
 you're my baby
I am a graduate
magma cum laude
I'm a suckee
I get sucked out like you wouldn't think
 the empty water, a wash
 flash flood, freeze me
walk on me


   congratulations
I have hair for centuries
 to comb,
  to braid on the beach
   to look at under nightlit light

those veins musthave gushed
I'vent straw teeth
I'vent suckers on
I'vent reasons to dig
I'vent bloodlust thrustin

I've my own blood for guzzling
& mine's with the white fighters
& the murdering connivers
birdhouse bodies nesting
  near the ground of me
  settle in
  get your young down
  fluff in 4 life
I'm no cannibal, I'm a husky eye-ear-mouth haver
I'm no ear-mouth-haver
I'm a husk lover
I'm a fillyou-upper
I'm a 
let me in
  I'm a toogood
of
an idea
       to let you have

what can't I say?

when I have all of the words? your songs make me butterfly in all of the tips of me. the rush of paper wings in veins. I am so in love, all of the time, & with everything. here I sit, in unionbay tee, with hat & frenched braid through the hole, listening to a song that MIGHT make you happy, MIGHT make you cry, and we both be nostalgic. & still we never, ever, ever meet. I have the regular liquors, the cocktail, the bourbon, the herbs from your crying garden. stay here! you wail, shirt longer than your shorts. but of course, I have to go now. but why? you cry out, as I pull those plump little cherry tomatoes from their vines. bye    bye
