Labia
Print on paper with text printed on tissue paper. 24"x24". 2018
The text is printed on tissue paper, which overlays the image printed on heavyweight print paper. The poetry reads:
In an effort to join with you
I touch and spread gently with my fingertips
your labia and bring my head
in close and lick your clitoris.
“Yes,” you respond.
“Yes,” I respond.
Your labia are everywhere,
hidden, delicate, curled, protected.
“Yes,” reply the trees. “Yes,” say the mushrooms.
She writhes with pleasure.
“Yes,” he turgid and alive and
yes the dragonflies darting through the air
the reeds pushing through the mud
yes the water droplets from the trees.
Yes, yes, yes.
With this I make love to you.
With this I make love to you.
