Two Poems
Mike Corrao
Annihilate!
Open maw of flesh-slit
strip the meat from stone fruit
build a mound from their pits
summon the hundred headless woman
let the universe expand
Salivate!
You dress yourself in sacrificial garb
crown of iguanas
collage of limbs
now is a time of magical thinking
where blood will vibrate words
& your larynx will flood with desire
