when sex
w/o love equals
consensual rape,

i give &
you take.

beaver

distilled rat;
bloated in our
chlorinated pool.

hoof

©2004 Devin Davis (townee)
a fat woman’s own narrowed
feet, bound to wear 3-toe shoe;
and she’s been completely off
balance since all hallows eve.

slow

©2004 Devin Davis (townee)
sex is a lecture,
for which your corneas wish
attention; even as the body
sleeps in. glistening…

irascible ink.

tuna

there was always
a danger of dijon & onion…
advanced in her sandwich making.

a ladder

day gone by;
why are we upon
the andiron of a peach

fire escape?

infamy

©2004 Devin Davis (townee)
now, iwo
jima takes
only 2 hands
& transparent
tape, to put up
stars; a strip in
the newspaper.

pins;
needles;
the nails

you bent…
& your Korean
eyes void—my
wooden christ.
