#1732 - bestial

bestial

ekphrastic for Arthur Murch’s 1935-9 ‘Leda’

 

before and after

you decide

the wings to lift or land

 

with whom the other handed gesture?

half a leg submerged

 

eyes tight languid

dreaming  

 

lust is larger than the creature

godspizzle invisible yet

 

taut neck

a bird regardless of the size

will always see things sideways

 

then who’ll say – just a story?

who’ll say all long since?

 

a tapestry spill

how you had to be there

 

we know

this entanglement faster than light
