Koh<br />
whispers between weeds<br />
a tangle <strong>of</strong> sheets<br />
a tear—<br />
i smell rain<br />
hush you say<br />
i am a thorny dandelion<br />
and you my dear are my sweet, green thumb<br />
fingers, eager, pull a strong root<br />
water clapping glass<br />
your juices drip through me<br />
your earthworm tongue<br />
explores my very dirt<br />
no, my chlorophyll beau<br />
we are both green-skinned flowers<br />
intertwined in a soil-caked clasp<br />
skin infecting skin<br />
storm ending<br />
we collapse<br />
soaking in our muddy love<br />
