strangled in ritual

strangled in ritual



 incessant hungry obsessions
pregnant with chaos

   labor through my brain            sweetly disinclined to surrender
                 to your old midwives’ tales heard
                                                                       
  again

     and                                       and
                                                                          
    of

                                             again                           again

                                                              and

   the black sheep’s scapegoat
               perpetual compulsions
   fertile with imperfection
 giving birth to

 hide hands

                                            and                                 feel fabric
                       
                       
again                          safe skin
                                                           
      safe
