Postcolonial love poem

Postcolonial love poem --

Blood-light --

These hands, if not Gods --

Catching copper --

From the desire field --

Manhattan is a Lenape word --

American arithmetic --

They don't love you like I love you --

Skin-light --

Run'n'gun --

Asterion's lament --

Like church --

Wolf OR-7 --

Ink-light --

The mustangs --

Ode to the beloved's hips --

Top ten reasons why Indians are good at basketball --

That which cannot be stilled --

The first water is the body --

I, minotaur --

It was the animals --

How the Milky Way was made --

Exhibits from The American Water Museum --

Isn't the air also a body, moving? --

Cranes, mafiosos, and a Polaroid camera --

The cure for melancholy is to take the horn --

Waist and sway --

If I should come upon your house lonely in the west Texas desert --

Snake-light --

My brother, my wound --

Grief work.
