Viscous and tender These moments around 9pm Upside down and gazing Feet like a rowdy symphony All moving in raucous allyship I simmer in the delicate effervescence Teeming vines thrilled and dancing Swimming through viscosity Thickness perhaps birthing from relief Oneness poured on hands cupped Oneness, soupy with depths as rich as each commits to be changed Devotional maillard reactions Steam and aroma and fond and breath and hum Seasoned bounty poured, glazed, caked, sprinkled, contained, admired, held, extracted, celebrated, loudly slurped the rah crescendos, ebbs and flows surely settling as the hours pass Doors open and close part way Grateful glances bid adieu Oneness composted little by little I’ll meet you again, perhaps anew and teeming with new spirit Until next Thursday
