her body does verbs among me
there are the wet thumbs of Gods long dead flung down 


~ from Transmigration by Danny Beatty

 

 

 

 

 

 

Those groans men use
passing a woman on the street
or on the steps of the subway

to tell her she is a female
and their flesh knows it,

are they a sort of tune,
an ugly enough song, sung
by a bird with a slit tongue

but meant for music?

 

 

~ from The Mutes by Denise Levertov.
