Caught In The Snow

Thin airmail paper and
the gaudy green and
yellow Mexican stamp.
Inside,
a long breezy typewritten account of your trip
with picture of you,
slumped grinning on the beach,
dishevelled, dingy,
looking as desirable as ever.

Rosy haze of sex
yearning to discolor
all values --

Now I stand in a
queer bluish twilight
with snowflakes whirling about,
stinging hot cheeks,
you, a ghostly waterfall
in my head.

____

I Own My Hunger
search for a hand
tough yet tender,
a tongue for my navel
to plant the seed of
spontaneous inspiration

piano songs
each note
an hors d'oeuvre,
in a way
the silverware
shines sinister,
can the table
hold our
sweet weight?
are your eyes
c r a z y?
