The problem with porno.

The problem with porno.

A Poem by Safrina
"

picture by a lovely ornery gentleman ;)

"
The dotted lines in the wallpaper, a single seed on the bedroom table- I have seen these things, a blooming heart in my mouth, and isn't it
appropiate how the octopus at the door has eight legs, and isn't wonderful, the single hunk of flesh?


I still want to ask, how do I stay human? In this tiny moment, a balloon opens up to applaude us on the kitchen table, the fruit rind holding up like an empty

head on a passport, fingers all over,

and i still want to ask
isn't it wonderful this table, floor,
the butterfly sewn to the window?
and isn't wonderful, the panther
lying next to me with a human smile?

Author's Note

Safrina
for people like me, porno isn't all too effective when you're mind creates a proganist, a squeeling lady and counts the flowers on the bedroom side table and the legs of a chair.
