Coming together  
it is easier to work  
after our bodies  
meet
paper and pen
neither care nor profit
whether we write or not
but as your body moves
under my hands  
charged and waiting  
we cut the leash
you create me against your thighs  
hilly with images
moving through our word countries  
my body
writes into your flesh
the poem
you make of me.

Touching you I catch midnight  
as moon fires set in my throat  
I love you flesh into blossom  
I made you
and take you made
into me.

“Recreation“ by Audre Lorde

I found a copy of Black Unicorn at a used book store when I was 14, and bought it because I only read sci-fi and fantasy books and I thought it was literally about unicorns. The lesbian bits made me deeply uncomfortable, but then when I realized I liked girls, having the book on my shelf was really comforting. Like there was this larger world that I was connected to.
