HER SWAMP.

I make this dance, Angel
i must dance with you
Queen,
Black, tall, slender
sitting legs crossed.
Dancing with you, Angel
I miss these steps though
yours so hard i try to keep.
I count your moves, they complicate
mine
I rest in my confusion.

I fly with you O beauteous wonder
as you flap these widespread wings
and i copy you.
But you glide, you glide
Even slowly, slowly away and i after
you chase
But my heart, spare me.
its too weak to carry and i fall quickly
even away this time.
Outstretched arms of mine
But 'Let go' you command!

And I lay with you
I make your hips my sinking thoughts
Even as you twist in slow vibes turns
Let me wonder i pray, let me remain
lost in your woods
as you imitate the cobra
I remain dampened in your
Quicksand.
