Apparatus in the Background

By metaphormachine

The clenched male snake world.

The whispers in the background.

The apparatus is

mysterious

& something round.

 

I just want to be with within you.

No wonder.

That has some problems

to find its nest.

 

The hands yourself to God

led

the brood - couples

on the narrow rock.

The dance of the cranes.

  • A former member wrote: sad somehow and solitary... the narrator seems lost and removed from it all somehow. subtly sexual. as always, your art moves me.
