The Kiss--Anne Sexton

My mouth blooms like a cut.
I've been wronged all year, tedious
nights, nothing but rough elbows in them
and delicate boxes of Kleenex calling crybaby
crybaby , you fool!

Before today my body was useless.
Now it's tearing at its square corners.
It's tearing old Mary's garments off, knot by knot
and see -- Now it's shot full of these electric bolts.
Zing! A resurrection!

Once it was a boat, quite wooden
and with no business, no salt water under it
and in need of some paint. It was no more
than a group of boards. But you hoisted her, rigged her.
She's been elected.

My nerves are turned on. I hear them like
musical instruments. Where there was silence
the drums, the strings are incurably playing. You did this.
Pure genius at work. Darling, the composer has stepped
into fire.


I get resurrected every week. But somehow it always involve these bruises...
I think my doctor is under the impression that I'm a victim of domestic violence. I was handed a pamphlet about it. Sigh. Maybe NicoleLee can make me a "I like it rough" t shirt. Yep, I think that would say it all.

Resurrected or Resuscitated ? If you manage to get that shirt made... I would kiss to get one... wink
