Author: by Cynis Mashu

Description: An example of ‘beat’ poetry, common in the past decade, usually delivered verbally with accompaniment from a Linowan drum.

Contents:

fingers tumbling over vertebrae

like the ridge of a key

lip locked and one socked

elated and asphyxiated

rolling through crumpling cloth

waistbands and busy hands

snapping sliding over and down

I say with a wink

you shudder to think

we share a laugh and breath

though tongue tied

we cant keep still

or shake the chill

like moonlight in a fight

with candle flicker

at odds they bicker

one warm yet jitters

the other cool but a blanket

radiant just the same

again say my name

my ear otherwise left to the moans

grab my flush face and erase from sight

these inferior tones of night
