Course:Lled368-pain

i drank it like brimming lava

from a clay cup

and as my saliva caused the steaming of the sea

i beheld the birds as my handiwork

meanwhile the planks of earth and water combined

brought the ground i walk to seethe

in a protest against ceiling cob

so i offered up my second son

out of skylight

and into the shards of a broken bench

and though some wished to lap the blood at his broken ribs

as pleaded

with it i watered the tree

the planet shook in its hunger

to once again have him in her womb
