threaten my primal safety / cloud
the new moon then blow naked /
penetrate / slip into round belly /
the steaming warmth going away
/ armor of tight places in me / I
held my truth / other’s energies
cling to me / vapor essence / my
gaze rises toward a reminder of
my place / I forget / lost now in his
massive night / hunt / find home
