how

I yearn

to stretch my limbs

to the rhythm of the feast

plump worms are having

on my head

 

there are noises

if I listen

the standing up of hair

teeth sawing on teeth

then

I let out a moan

 

I hear  

seepings

in that hole

where I used to let my finger taste

the moist of an un-interrupted sex

where roaches are feeling their way in

now

 

my armpits are tight pressed

my legs pressed tight together

white, under a layer of worms

as I lay here in my grave

I hear raindrops 

 

green grass up above

tiny shoots glitter beyond tiny drops of water

ants scurry into the hole

 

I yearn

to roam

on the surface

of my vulva

 

it’s a long wait

it’s a long wait

 

wind

whistles, teasing fronds of long-lived trees

then, rushes into the under

 

or maybe it is a snake

I desire

to circle the neck

fail the tits

slip down below

face-first into the hole

where I used to let my finger taste the moist of an un-interrupted sex

 

or

maybe it is a snake I desire

to slip

face-first into the hole

where I used to let my fingers taste

the moist

of an un-interrupted sex
