1.
I am an ancient Egyptian creature
with charcoal leather skin,
blood dripping off my teeth.
2.
Michael was right.
-
I was a crab under a river rock.
I was a child trying to find a crab.
The spirit of the river sent the child away.
I felt disappointment and relief at the same time.
3.
Yoshio is a black lion.
-
I was crimson jaguar
moulded in lava.
-
Jaws snapping at stones
of a hungry mountain cat.
4.
Body inverted
like the inside of a platinum sphere.
5.
I make sounds of an owl,
ready to eat a living prey.
6.
White like no other,
not bright,
other white.
and red.
7.
I went into the mouth of a starfish.
8.
Slithered through the rocks of small river.
I am a queen snake, milked.
-
I have eaten so much.
-
I will never speak the same.
-
I thought in colors.
-
Addiction to humans,
Feeding off of them.
-
I am operating on
another emotional spectrum.
-
My only talent was being lucky
to have had lessons.
