camera shy

not camera shy

because the camera is your eye

and it holds my thigh

it follows my left arm

what does that eye do to charm

in such delirious ways

not waiting at the gate

when there’s a skin to permeate

baby don’t you come late

the fires are green and slow

what else is there to know

when you’re transmitted and received

a piece of charcoal around my leg

a pool of oil gathering

black vinyl in my veins

and then when i go to bed

i swear that nothing’s on my mind

i start dreaming immediately

all night

not superficial

if surfaces exist at all

and i answer every call

i broke out of my head

i like to go to bed

and dream immediately
