EVELEENA

Kimberly Nichols

There are other branches
Other fig trees
Exasperating Donnas
Beautiful vixens
And the Jewish sense of order
That comes from moments
Of intense pain

(This I connect to).

There are other sex mates and
Fancy playthings
And
Coattails trimmed with animal
Ardor.
I know
This to be true, this is true.
There are cats that walk on keyboards
Narcissistic
Wanting footprints
Are no different from you or me.

(In the desert my voice is perfectly tuned).
