What You Do Best Poem by Lola Sanchez

What You Do Best

Rating: 4.0


Take to the blade
slice my flesh
watch me bleed
make it flow

flood the streets
paint with my blood
swim in my blood

Sink away in my placenta
drown in me
laugh at my wounds
Howl at the moon
this is what you do best

rinse my veins
wash my heart
bleach my lungs
curse my soul

Howl at the moon
this is what you do best

Wel gedaan, is dit 'n wolf of 'n hond wat op die maan skree? kyk tog op jou gesig moek sodat ons 'n plan kan maak vir daai koffie
