Passion Fruit

A sexual fantasy
Models the terms
Of an argument.

*

So-called simple binaries
Aren’t so simple:
Male-female,
Emptied-filled,
Possessor-possessed,
For example.

*

Derrida’s notion
That all others
Are absolutely other
Seems relevant here.

*




I’m a continuum.
Are you?

*

We need
To ask
One another
More questions.

*

Is desire
A hole
Or voice
Or conflagration?

*

Beauty is not
A rare thing, Ezra.
Compassion is.



*

I/You:
At least
2 rivers.

*

What do
You want?

Who are
You, anyway?

*

First person
(always plural).

*

When is
Being saying?




When is
Saying knowing?

*

The music
Of smooching.

*

What’s
A performance?

Is a dildo
Merely a noun,
A banana
Only a fruit?

*

Dear _____,

Don’t know



How to
Respond to
Your inquiry.

What do
You want?

Sincerely,

Blank

*

Can’t imagine
At this
Moment any
Thing other
Than this:

A public
Speaker begins
By saying
That it


Is available
For sexual
Activity at
The conclusion
Of its remarks.

*

Remarks is
A strange word.

*

Have come
To abhor
Quotation marks.

*

Is grammar Grandma?

Grandma, by the way, rocks!

*


Who wants
To be
Entered
By whom?

Who wants
To enter whom?

*

How intertwined are
Art, religion, desire?

What gets warshopped?

*

Can we
Exchange scenarios?

Call me you.

*




What belongs
To what?

How does
One decide?
