Man falls over enthusiast dies


Man falls over enthusiast dies
man with wart in kissing bid

tearing away the grasp of the nurse
from her hospital corners
the economist from the recalcitrant shrug of her shoulders
and the raising of her palms outwards
indicating lilywhite hands
as soft as milk

Man falls over enthusiast dies
man with wart in kissing bid

the attachment of a tamer to his tiger
The attachment of gangrene to her toe
The attachment of a kray twin to its mother
The attachment of menstruation to its lunar cycle
Don’t let go now don’t let go

Man falls over enthusiast dies
man with wart in kissing bid

your face is the rockpool
your mouth is the waterfall
I am the verdant caress of your wetness
Rain on me
Rain on me

Man falls over enthusiast dies
man with wart in kissing bid

no-one is innocent not one
you my love excite me

like the pharaoh’s mare excites his stallions
just as it says in the song of songs
no-one knows where the wind comes from
no-one knows where the wind comes from

Man falls over enthusiast dies
man with wart in kissing bid
Man falls over enthusiast dies
man with wart in kissing bid.
