I Am Her (for Diana)

by Willi Brown


She rises full and swollen

dripping power

and delicate laughter

I cry

for I am I

and not her

 

Her night ride is endless

and my body aches

with longing

desire to be I

and desire

to be Her

Hear Her Listen (for the New Diana)

by Willi Brown


With a voice

you can taste

she shimmers

my breasts ache

   and we are filled with wonder.

 

With an ear

for silence

she listens

to an oak

   chanting his windy poem.
