First Draft
by Arthur Simone |
|
Blue ink bleeds into her pink wet summer skin
Where I provided my John Hancock
(As if my signature claims her body as my Art).
She giggles as I write
The name of God on her breast.
My pen never runs dry-
Our ink well is deep,
An eternal blue.
Words become stories become this bible
We are writing together.
Ignoring punctuation and grammar
And the bath that comes before morning coffee
The press of my pen will be felt long after
In this my Declaration.
