Hunger

There is a dichotomy of wants in me

Windsor-knotted ties

Lush libraries

Well-kept hands pouring fine wine

And

Men with lithe muscle

Women with berry-stained lips

Long, witchy skirts 

Dusting the forest floor

Either side is a cry for hedonism

One in refined taste

Dorian Grey silks

And the other

A life of ease and split ends

Communion with the earth

Bodies unashamed to taste each other

Both seek that marrow

And I seek those seekers

Waiting for either deluge
