Untitled


Sweetness is the kernel of corn
that you call a butterfly
caught between the husks
of your rose and amber
thighs.

And night is the name
of the skin
you’re wrapped in:
I found the moon
they left in your left hand.

My love,
your body is like
a spaceship, your eyes
are satellites.

Last night,
when I opened the cabin door,
when I entered you,
did you hear it?

The song of roots,
the song of bare feet,
the song of the stars.

The stars,
calling us home.
