animalustre

the humdrum of human goings-on disappears around me

as my tongue's imagination enters your mouth

and arches down the inside of your spine 

fro-licking around every vertebra

tasting each sexy sinew

my eyes and hands thrill with 

the exploration of your buoyancy

but oh it is my tongue that wishes 

to sweep unbridled over your back

yearning to trace your animalustre

and swallow a single syllable

of your wildeliciousness

simply this

simply this:
wanting my tongue to sprout scales

with which she can swim protected into the deep

and explore fearlessly the untamed underworld

verwesenliking

my lyf word weer wakker in 

haar diepste beweeglike kern

sing elke sel in honderd stemme

word my tollende lyf die getye van die see

daar is geen woord wat 

die verruklike spin van die lyf kan vasvang nie!

gee my geen woord

gee my net lyf waarmee 

ek my woordlose taal oor die sand kan skryf

my juigende voete versin die metafoor

in dieptrappende verwesenliking van 

die hartstog vasgevang in hygende spiere

spiere wat wil losbreek van

inperking en lamlendige gemak

gee my wind sand getye son reën

wat die golwing in my lyf sal laat bly golf
