Analysis of Dare
Sarah Brower 1995 (New Jersey)
Dare your eyes
To lock with mine
Dare your lips
To drip lost breath
Bring your hands
To clamp your chest
Rip apart the rotting skin
Reveal to me
Unfailing kidneys
Consistent beats
Pristine blood
Breathe into me
Resurrect my love
Dare your nostrils
To flare confidence
Dare your feet
To walk my path
Unveil your shadows
Reveal your soul
