in the brown boy eye
pig-tail ribboned
hard hand and heart
you are beautiful
in your standstill dance
all the brown boy eyes
beg you call them home
be sweet girl jaundice
stretched across the curve
of black boy sightsee
be open eye
be all out in the world
be eye-smile and tear drop
be river of right
down mountainside of man-nose
be woman-water breaking
when whatever hurts
be jelly on the inside
sweet to tasting tongue
be everything
daddy didn’t touch
