Text There is such a Fire Written by Wren Alman I walk through the world with my head bowed Your words come to me like dandelions through the cracked concrete Desperately blooming We move together, eyes down Anxious to look away, afraid to meet one another’s eye To say ‘excuse me’ as an admonition of need as we move through this world To say ‘could you repeat that’ like an admittance of guilt To say ‘the blanket you are weaving in your mind is only half colored with our words, and half with your impression of us.’ The strike of my cane like lightning against the ground in a quiet place My body the tree, smoldering inside You another tree, singed from the heat Our canopies are untouching, shy of one another, of sharing shock and pain and fire I did not know what it was to love someone like you Even if I could have heard the gospel, no one was preaching it. To me, to us. Bodies that are strange and beautiful and not what they want But yours is a body so lovely in the way it bends. Like wisteria blooming, wrapped around your Self You are purpled and climbing ever upwards And when you touch me, I don’t need to hear the gospel because it is in that Uneven rise and fall of your chest The stinging smell of tiger balm and the sensuous coil of your body seated in a black and metal throne The touch of your curled hand against my face. The tremble in mine. The gusty press of words against my ear. Lightning struck the tree that is my body, your body The thunder is my cane, your chair, the storm is the silence where there might be sound, the twist and bend of your body And there is such a fire, shared between us.
