Milk of Marrow

I saw what you did underneath the table

Beneath the fine layer of sweat

That encapsulates your hands and face

As if you are my egg

Is that sweat from my body?

My voice turned to milk in your mouth

I gave you words:

The milk was from my breast

Take my voice in your mouth

Feel my lips with the sound

Take my voice speak marrow, speak bone

Marrow and bone

Crystal clams were my bones

Melt the ice with our tongues

Secret milk passes between our lips

Speak body and bone!

Marrow, marrow, marrow

They’re calling!

They’re calling woman!

Take my voice in your mouth

Feel my lips with the sound

I hear what you did underneath the table

Beneath the fine layer of flesh

That encapsulates your hands and face

As if you are my egg

Is that skin from my body?

My voice turned to milk in your mouth

The Milk of Marrow

Honey dew

Honey dew

Honey dew
