Desire
before the word
before the will
before the law
Desire
from the loins
unrestrained
untamed
SHEMALE!

Sacred femininity
two lips opening
clitoris hardening
humid cavity
ejaculating
liquids of lust
Sacred femininity
Eros unbound
desire to live
to perdure
like the rock
like the river
perdure
permute
permute
perdure
Sacred femininity
primordial force of life
desire
movement
CONATUS!
Sacred femininity
blood inundating earth
the first moon
and the last
Eros,
Chaos born,
Eros,
punk goddess
Eros, my lust for life
Eros, my cry of pleasure
diving into the floods
wallowing in the mud
Eros, the cold air I inhale,
sucking in the world
Eros, the hot air I exhale,
sharing my insides
Eros, the sun that tickles my klitoris
as I sit on the shore
– vulva embracing the world
I bleed
Primal
energies
sprouting,
gushing forth
from my animal ancestors
to my more than human kin
Lust, beyond sex
Pan, waking up from his nap,
Syrinx, Pitys, Echo
taking him from behind
Echo-ing all over
Eros-ing her lust
– my lust

Who the fuck needs penises
penetrating vulvas
Eros is all around us!
Am I Pan,
wanderer of the untamed wilds?
Am I Syrinx, Pitys, Echo,
Am I All, and None?
Life awash with Eros
Life awash with Life

Written at La Ponderosa, in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Magdalena, Columbia, for a winter solstice ritual performance at the ancient Kogui site of female initiation where girls were taken at their first menstruation.
With deep gratitude to the river Buritaca, its rocks, waters, shores, and its panerotic, ambient energies.
