With your bristles, yr hair,
   And hands like hammers,
   The smile after
   The big-eyed smothering deed,
  
   Turning around the passage.
   The real wanting
   Of someone not
   On the canvas.

   You don’t show your
   Teeth, your thorns. Instead
   You show your thighs,
   Lift up your skirt, just a bit

   To give us your
   Landscape of nerves
   And rocks, the reptile
   In your echoing laughter.
