Hours in Bed Before Noon


Vegetarian vocals are
Sinless whispers from
Cannibal body
And sweetest little soul

Meat eater:
Like concrete fire
And whimsy fevers
With adamantine smile
And clay molded tear

Awe vender:
Like reverend slender
Gospel on my shame
Chorus to my fears

Blood drainer:
I'm white on the face
Brain turned haste
Sweating ice
Sweating near

Your heart racer:
A wild venture
The smooth, the tight
The soft golden firm

Tissue blender:
Ask directions now
Read instructions later
Explore flesh at best
Devoured tough and hard

And guile coven
One of thirteen women
All within sole reason
All in single form

You're my snake in judgment
You're my devil in sound
But you're my angel in life
And cherub in love-bound

The doves swing above
Swaying in sailing swoon

Sing
Sing love
Hours in bed before noon
