white albatross, these white
coats fluttering. only here
to fill up a paper cup--
now, go shower
the cold water stings
like hail on jupiter
I manage this.
O albatross
naked, abject,
look at this wretch
dose me and love me
with your wings spread
heal me now
with your sharp nose and
sleeked back hair
languid, cot, albatross.
a fox den of estrogen
sound the trumpets,
a grand fanfare,
I manage this.
yellowed and maroon
blood testing room
little *****
flutter your coats O
Albatross
lock the door
close the blinds
and step quietly, for
my blood boils
differently than you,
I hunch like a vulture,
ceased, no prey
O, albatross
