Between the edges of my frame, all is bare for you to see,
The inside of me is forced to abide your scrutiny,
I cannot close my legs, I've lost control of this part of me,
There is judgement in your stare, but I am not outside looking in
It is a shame that you carry opinions when all I feel is one word,
And you all would know it but for the glass wall in front of me.
And the stone wall behind.
*
Listen to her voice, from the depths of her darkness,
Where all things will lie, in the everlasting fastness,
The intangible whirling that crosses her back,
The soft coolness that penetrates it and soon goes back,
On top of which all things come to her for their nap,
For when awake all they do is take from her womb,
It is their tomb, it will also be their doom.
*
Your blood flows warm inside you but you feel the ice under your skin,
You know the feel of her skin, thus recognition shouldn't perhaps wear thin,
Why do you assume intelligence, takes the form of the loud spoken?
We are not even remotely beholden.
You sound like a braying ***
I really should not give you a pass
The human condition;
Let me give you my fear, this is how I care for you.
