Jun 1 Comme un bébé

Comme un bébé.
Like a baby, she said,
as she covered my head with a coarse towel
patting my hair dry
in the wet heat of the hammam.

Feb 18 Travel By Body

I could draw the whole world on your body
with my tongue and my teeth
and there just might be enough room for every country.

Nov 4 A Private Space For Us

marguerite Richards

We’ve planted a seed
in a private little space
outside of you
outside of me
that space is us
just the two of us alone
we’re calm
we’re warm
and we’re not going anywhere.

When you get a street named after you by a heavy metal rockstar for Christmas you know you’ve got it made. #icoulddiepeacefullynow 😍😊😘 @benjaminviber
