Fire is Your Name and Your Maker
Fire is your god’s
eye gleam the tiger that prowls your dreams
eye gleam the tiger that prowls your dreams
Fire is your sun and your rising
 |
| Tiger, Franz Marc |
You had to tamp your fire
down hard back in the day of pointy bras
and girdles when a spark in the back of a Chevy
could knock you up Remember
when a fiery tongue could get you
burnt alive?
Fire in the hearth now that’s
a woman’s business embers
from Mother’s fire offerings
 |
| Peasant Woman by the Fire, Vincent van Gogh, Thomas Nugent |
from the tree kitchen fire
bedroom fire birth fire fire
from the core of the earth When cauldron boils
there is no fire that can’t escape no fire
that will not leap and sass change shape
be burning snake in summer grasses
bedroom fire birth fire fire
from the core of the earth When cauldron boils
there is no fire that can’t escape no fire
that will not leap and sass change shape
be burning snake in summer grasses

your love to ashes?
l tell you how
Take a twig from the tree Whittle a sharp tip
Mix Mother’s fire with yours Burn
Make ash marks
on white paper Write yourself down
l tell you how
Take a twig from the tree Whittle a sharp tip
Mix Mother’s fire with yours Burn
Make ash marks

your leap and your sass your hot breasted
double edged axe the tiger that prowls your dreams
your sun and your rising
