• II - burning meditation

i am a burning
i am a burning meditation
i hold a watery island inside
waterbirds
and the full moon
float up

i lend a home to Nile crocodiles
my meditation is
usually not aqua blue
but red from desire
rising in their eyes

i feed the crocodiles a delicious sun
and put them to sleep

i live in
i live in a burning meditation
listening to waves lap the watery island

soundlessly
