Persephone
I want to kiss your lips to stave off
the underworld,
to remain here on lush green earth.
I am tired of long journeys and dark tunnel
visions of men who want to possess me.
I am tired of death.
Your mouth is like fruit, like seeds,
like something growing, like pomegranates
split open, juicy, luscious-but Love,
even you are a slide towards the abyss,
even you lead me to lands
where nothing blooms.
