black bitch in museum
singing stones // the dusable
she is no girl but
a mollusk of mud and manure
is her // rotted
gutted organ retching
plump clumps of brine clay
and horsehair //
fat nose draped in
skinned bough
and bitter fermented tears //
she is no woman but fat mule before
death is her //
birthing black
supple bodies
of dung filled daughters
destined for desecrated
tombstones // that sprout
stalks of dust
gold and ginger.
she is no god but
god is soaked in ginger beer
and smothered liver //
her closed smirk isstuffedwithclumps
of mulehair mollusk meat
and slated memories of
crackwhips and warm sewage
that melt like mush
in biglippedmoufs.
she is no girl but
black bitch// drenched in
brine //ginger// and dung
//is us.
