CONTEMPT FOR THE ARTIST
In another life
I’d have two pets
Content with a 9-5
The conventional beauty
So softly spoken
Maybe then
I would be enough
Instead I find myself
Drawing blood for pigment
For a large stretch of silk
Setting moulds for a field of apples
Wearing both crowns
And two names ready
In a house which is not my home
ANOTHER FORTY DAYS AND FORTY NIGHTS
Everything and nothing all at once. And here is the apple tree ripe from your lips, bearing fruit again, like each corner of the earth was walked for forty days and forty more nights, and all rivers were swam through, two or three too many times. I do not understand the purpose or the rhythm nor reason to why we meet all other persons, but I must, I must, go into the void, walk the distance, enter the forest, see night as day and my hell which shows me heaven. This is the making of queens and we are more than Lilith. We are Goddesses of this realm called Earth.
