brown girl

brown girl, down, girl
playing hooky like a scoundrel.
drown, girl? mongrel
alabaster skin, wild soul.
gypsy bastard to my dirty core
tan hipbones, blackened hide.
my mousey foxhole playing tag.
splay out my legs, harbinger of sin
what you hide behind that foreign look,
and why can't you just be still.
brown girl, mouse girl
talk forever in a down-whirl.
mouse girl, tongue swirl,
darling ever a flaunt pearl.
play my mouth the one way I know how
goodbye-bidding, sharpening my hooks,
drag forever forward-leaning.
hanging back, no option at all.
fixer-dancer to broken cores,
stuff me pretty inside a dusty box.
where you go, heart sore
clean your brain off a hey-ho.
sunkiss belly, acrobatic woe
hook my toes round a brown bow
round bow? brown soul.
salt my skin, hiking up my spite
drag tomorrow
down my secret burrow.
throw another dime in, red.
