mother cow

mother cow is a space not incomplete
a ripening of fruit
for biting
and ripping
: to tear with teeth

orange in disposition
to taste, to eye
and i, extinguished in areas of faith
of cup
and body:
waves pleat against these ribs,
they are a rhythmic pulse.

she cries amber oil
that blossoms and shines her faith.
she will pack red clay on her feet
and pace her impurities.
