Burial In The Womb

Kumar Kamal

you & i,mistletoe & wine
twine/untwine/time/tide
tulips torn;woman`s born
ship`s sunken;seamen songs
mermaids magnify;umbilical calls--
I & You;You & I
War in Iraq-drummings of the dry
Creamation,burial,watery goodbye
What`s lie There after we die?!
You & I cross & climb,fly & fight
Teeth to teeth sink giving out lights!
alive she cried,engulfing me live
Wind blew;petals flew
beauty-in-the-rose-bud bled anew
drunk in loveliquid slow and full-
a woman is bloomed
She`s spread in nude;Mighty Aphrodite smile
and look at my adam`s golden globe,meaningful
adam she dines,drinks,dry
Come my roses,come my muse
