1.
by blue water goddesses soar in the sky and boil in lakes
the forest is alive with a thousand drunk friends
in a storm of chanting worshiping spring
he played a frantic symphony in the garden
my breast heaved beneath an elaborate diamond dress
death rose fast there one gorgeous summer
i ache for sweet honey on my tongue
bitter love crushes me & i ask why it’s over
he said we could go away together
i am raw & rusted
delirious
you dream of beauty
let it lie
2.
she shines like the shadow of the moon
her blood revealing mist of seas above
light waxing on her petal skin
rain swimming through a bare pink head
3.
you dream of beauty
the light of the moon in a cool forest
the hot sun by a blue lake in summer
whispers of your sweet love
stop
do not ask for time
sing worship to the sky today
soar frantic like a storm
delirious & alive
cry
scream
moan
shine
let death lust after you
4.
in the shadow
she lives a
girl
woman
goddess
bare
repulsive
mess
raw
elaborate
gorgeous
he sees her
5.
her breast is crushed
beneath a gown of a thousand diamonds
her skin aches to be bare
raw & pink as a rose
6.
she sings symphonies to the goddesses
women who fashion gardens of light
in a sea of black shadow
and shine like the sun
revealing the beauty of their daughter moons
she is one petal floating on the breeze of spring
blowing in the wind
frantic to worship her mothers
