Love
I have another body
outside
of me
they call it
love
[but this is pain]
if I had carried you in my body
only then I would have felt your existence
this much.
This World is a Man
I am a woman
like this huge earth
I am treeless
maybe I am living
I am under earth
I am upside-down
I am breathing
not so that I stay in this world more
sometimes I go to a man
-to a nothingness-
this world is a man
strong, coward, cheater
Masturbation
All the lines of my body
are awakening
Like a grape
I am full, I am black
if you don’t have a man
to love you
make men from your hands
[because they all
remain
like the bridges
reach to your body
and falling down]
