I Am an Animal
First I was an animal. First I wanted be an animal who survives, who lives, who eats yolk and red fruit, who drinks clear water, who sleeps down in a tight thick curl all winter, who daisy-faces toward the summer sun when it peeks out, who runs, who hungers, who fucks. First I wanted to fuck, to turn this moment all the way into my flesh like a starred sky and think of nothing else, to explode. First I wanted to explode and be exploded into, to wet all over, to be filled with creamy life, to be sticky, to be pregnant.

First I wanted to be pregnant, to breed, to extend past the length of my own bruised limb, to sow, to expand everywhere like a broke-up seed, to burst in the dirt of it all. First I wanted to birth, to moan and quicken with the moon and squat in the dawn and push and scream the names of gods I never cared about before, to pop the blood in my eyes with the effort, to split in half up the ass, to come as close to death as possible, to loll a head out of my vagina and squat there, doubled, mothered, knowing it. First I wanted to mother, to eat the smell of new skin, to feed this babefrom my own calloused and bitten inches, to feed on its love, to never sleep, to sleep like fur, to obsess, to squirt milk when I made myself cum in the dim few hours alone. First I did not want to cum. I wanted to do nothing but nurse and sleep and not-sleep and prod gently at my other body as if it were a fossil beneath the deflated and heavy fat of my body, and to mother. I wanted to mother that baby right up.

First my baby stood up and stopped nursing and I wept and let my arms hang down and went for a run and my body excavated itself from the extra fat and something sparked in me, a flint that was that other kind of animal sense again, tiger bear firefly wolf bunny buffalo bitch in heat, that was my libido that wanted to fuck, and I set the baby aside in a safe warm nest and went out hunting. Again and again. A cycle of seasons, of mating and fucking and sleeping dormant and breeding and raising up cubs and sniffing their slipperiest hairs, their powdery drool of wanting. It comes. It flows. When I am full of a child, and then when my arms are newly full of a new child, we are a bubble on a stream, and I am practically nothing but milk and lowing.

Then the child walks and the milk dries and my body thins and all I can think about is skin and tongues and fat andmuscle again. And then I want to fuck and I want to cum and I want to be knocked up and I want to only carry this baby so its heartbeat is directly up against my heartbeat and I want to sleep and I want to run in the mud and I want to dance and I want to eat red meat and I want to fuck. Because first, blessedly, I am an animal. Picture 4

Made by Maid is My Favorite Song by Laura Marling and I Want to Crawl Inside It, and You, Too
gunners in my stomach the almost-throw-up feeling of sex want & the animal in the kitchen wall behind the oak secretary scratching, having fallen down a tub or tube (which maybe I am also falling down??) & everything opening with the taint & tease of spring on the wet lips of February on the Maine coast everything trying to come out but no sir no siron my knees sir (I kind of like saying it) I will stay here in my deep swallow I will keep choking fake choking I will imagine again & again the first time we meet the earth cracking beneath our flat black shoes the apocalypse changes nothing it is excruciating & gorgeous (all the jeweled food in the mason jars repeating like chant) keep me like that for a special occasion a wound watch skipping in its little jittered second as a means to a lucid state: check it Im forgetting to eat, even; its so unlike me all the yous in the universe make a hot ravine down the middle of my tongue
A Wild Way
berries cupped in front of your body & berries cupped inside your body so I am dripping like a garden: >> just fucking fuck me please << a walnut: a plum: a beckoning: >> GRAY WOLF << pin me down!!! no you say lets take it one step on a smooth gray stone at a time oh sweet wild plum with your gloves on & I will keep the berries near my skin & I will also find another to take me a wild way
Friend to the Farmers
come eat by me and be my love: I made you this, with whole wheat flour this is what it means that whole wheat flour is whole: it has the bran, the germ and the sperm left in it so do you, thank god and me I am a wholesome girl friend to the farmers! which means I am often dirty even filthy here in the country and have to wear my knee-high spaceship-silver shit boots (everyone in the country wears knee-high boots in mud season) I am a natural, free-ranging milk-fed girl SO wholesome though I dont really like to think of my mouth or my cunt as holes because they have so much happening inside them but come along with me
