I wanna be an octopus. I wanna kiss you With my feet and hands All around. I wanna embrace Cup by cup The life I might Love or consume. Sometimes I'd melt myself Over the rocks of my cave, Just watch the other Hunters skim by. I'd think myself floppy, Merely a mass among masses, Another hidden sage. Sometimes ... I’d just jet Across the green blue, Etch A perfect outline Above the mountains, A falcon, A musical movement, A trumpet On the thermals of the sea. Then, I'd be your flesh, Only flesh, I'd be what the flesh is, The spectrum, the domain Of each of our cries Of pleasure and pain.
You're so welcome!
