Suchoon Mo- Two Poems

 

A Non-Euclidean Rattle Snake

the shortest distance between the head and the tail
of a rattle snake
is not a straight line
beware of that

 

 

 

Passion

lips eyes meet
thighs arms twist

naked heat lust
moon groan dark

sob choke scream
tight breath gasp

remote remorse
silent silence

the end is void
