Two blackbirds on a high line Screaming obscenities at the rising sun I wonder what they're saying? The nape of her neck, whole milk and henna hair Making love in the cotton cotton cotton Tea is best shared among lovers Hot or cold we sip from the same cup My love, turn on that darkness, a steady drip Fresh melon on your lips I want to lick them eternally Just kiss my back, my ear, me It's all I ask Let me into your watercolor soul Paint my heart in shades of ocher, teal, and meridian Any color will do As long as I paint with you You alone
