I want this body to live it all.
To experience faults and lies,
to feel the pain so deeply
that it leaves a scar
just above the thigh.

I want this body to live
live,live,live
this fantastically blue
and red life,
to drink and stumble
and bleed.

I want to give this body
-all flesh-
the dark pleasures
it has yet to discover.
Sensual.
Raw.
Ecstatic.

I want my body to fill up
way beyond my head
with electricity
that will keep me alive
well after my end.
