New Mother

Remove my hand from your pocket
Pluck my eye from your socket
I am your secret sharer
Bleeding beneath your covers

Show me the texture of your pregnant tongue
Prepare my mind with abortion
Cut me a delicate soft red place
I am your new mother, beginning

Why am I so cruel?
Why am I so cruel?
Why am I so cruel?
Why am I so cruel?

My body is a contorted accretion
Your body is my only possession
I am the stranger in your stomach
Calling out your name underwater

Feed me with rose-scented honey milk
Configure my mind with your voice of silk
I bring you the gift malignant
I am your new mother, beginning

Why am I so cruel?
Why do I love you?
Why are you so beautiful?
Because you are cruel
