I’ve tasted myself on your moustache

would I still

if I could taste your mind?

- Vivi Lash

3/27/09

Alone in the apartment

television

and last night’s breath on my neck

- Vivi Lash

4/22/09

Your voice ate New York

left Iowa

like a Haight-Ashbury runaway

- Vivi Lash

5/6/09

The sweat on your forehead

my legs acute

the ceiling’s dappled from rain

- Vivi Lash

5/20/09

Barefoot in icy mountain river water

your chest

vibrates standing still

- Vivi Lash

5/22/09

He fucked around with men

turned a blind eye

to an ambivalent clitoris

- Vivi Lash

6/17/09

your mouth

is enormous

for your ballet shoes

- Vivi Lash

7/24/09

with just your glasses

on

nothing fits perfectly

- Vivi Lash

7/29/09

You wear that sweater

like a secret

hides between your legs.

- Vivi Lash

8/26/09

how auspicious

to meet love nightmares

before I dream them.

- Vivi Lash

9/16/09

cut off my hair

nothing to hide

my sideways glances now 

- Vivi Lash

10/14/09

Maroon me

in your spitoon

your flavor preserves me.

- Vivi Lash

1/27/10

Sprung from some forehead

myriad arrows in my quiver

primed to sail towards your chest

- Vivi Lash

2/19/10

my legs

the golden gate bridge

pass underneath

- Vivi Lash

3/24/10

Oh breeze!  Where have you been?

I'm spilling out

over my jeans

- Vivi Lash

4/7/10

I like the way you pull my leg

the truth being what it is

straight and narrow and tired

- Vivi Lash

6/16/10

high school girl physics and dance --

everything, somehow, sounds fuchsia

and faster than a foxtail to freedom.

- Vivi Lash

7/14/10

Back freckles--seventeen scattered

like Perseus

with the universe behind him 

- Vivi Lash

9/1/10

Loins aflutter

sizing up the year ahead

from behind and below

- Vivi Lash
