Hawai’i
you cradle me
softening butter, oily lubrication
returning to you as
a fuller me.
microbes in soil, sustaining me
fermented pink onions
ginger flowers, milky coconut
red winged centipede.
i an essential oil
heated, diffused, frozen
yet full of flavor.
cold skin-tearing ice
i face you
this is my moment.
orchestra of koki frogs
i require constant
maintenance.
rocked by a wavy ocean
of uncertain storms
starry skies
i suck. i slurp.
tropical jungle of bean pods
my blood pressure
these antioxidants.
i am not here to
eat your process
more in less.
from sword to words
limiting or
embracing reality.
you inspire me
complexity in simplicity
simple complexity.
from push/pull
to dragonfruitful
octopeye
Life,
my breast milk, my lover.
