Plants grow toward the sun
The burden of fruit hangs on my vines
I grow toward the sun
I may fall
I grow toward the sun
I may lean on some structure
The lovers and houses and wires that support me
Still
I grow toward the sun
The tree bears the fruit that holds the seed that becomes a tree
The tree is not grateful to the fruit
Long since rotten or consumed
I thank my tree
I thank my fruit
I thank my seeds
I could not face the sun

My words are kindling
They are the fuel that saturates me
In my self-immolation
Men plant seeds
The seeds grow into plants, which hold fibers
Which are made into fabric for shirts
With which the men cover themselves
I plant my own words and speak away my nakedness
Words then are seen before me
Can I be more to the world than what I can be understood?
Will my expression become me?
IF I SPEAK
IF I CONTINUE TO SPEAK
WILL THE BEAUTIFUL AND HIDEOUS WORDS FROM MY MOUTH REPLACE ME?
BE CAREFUL
AND I MAY TALK MYSELF INTO SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
BUT WHAT COULD BE MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN SILENCE?

Born in a fever
A burning nativity
Orifices weeping
Incomprehensible
Sloughing carnage I carry about me
Born in a fever
That sphynx slouching
Eating all before me
Corpulent and trembling
Profaning the god who made me
In His image
Born in a fever
Birthing and bearing a stone
This is sickness
This is revulsion
Born in a fever
Dreaming my body
