Red Pulp Underground


Another kind of hunger
is often rectangular or circular,
catches me off guard,
rips me clean like a page
out of a good book.

I’ve lost my train of thought.

What was I thinking: She’s married;
she’s a single white female I want
to deflower; an ebony iris
I’d like to uproot.
This lustful body is full of goat milk.
The thumping: a breath snatching cavity.

A pulse felt in the fingertips,
a Christian conviction
for what is
shooting
sure shots through loophole scripture.
Wondering
if it’s better to watch?
wandering
back to the video store,
then home again.
