Wildberries bleed in between two fists
I clench, bury fingers deep in fleshy fruit
Oozing out and spinning with seeds to the floor below
Licking my forearms, wrists, fingertips
Trying to taste at that sweet ambrosia
To find but bittersweet
Too-ripe-raspberry instead
Everything is an analogy, again, again!
The same old used up ****, no innovation
And I grab, I rip the seams,
(rather sutures; sewn, resewn)
And pick my brain looking for
Any small bits of copper or computer chip parts
That mayhap I might fashion a real beast
To roar and scream, squish up berries and words
And find something honey'd dripping down
Instead of that sickening *******
Sour of spoiled milk and thought

I wish I could bottle for you
the scent of mountain air

Hug you so that you smell
of the wildflowers pinned in my hair

Glide my fingers over your porcelain skin
like the breeze caressing the leaves

Give you with my lips
a taste of glacial waters and wildberries

Bury your face in the rush of my heartbeat,
to the sound of a pine forest breathing

We are two persons
but the forest will make us one.
