I.

I still ripen
by each person who couldn’t stay
– juice of life

II.

love and lust
the deepest thirst for another
– I drink you

lost in delight
– a hummingbird
between your thighs

my bed
still knows the taste
of our lust

III.

the trees know their way
up to the sun
– liquid gold

juice:
the gift of the tree’s
liquid laughter
