Morro Bay, like morro rice
you put the black into my blackheart
a scream for freedom
and the call for comfort –
drink me as if I were delicious,
crumble the black rock to powder
and ink me. My teeth
are sharper still
for the desert is dry,
but you had to ask.

for the desert is dry,
but you had to ask.
