desire is pumpkin tendrils

It is an organic thing
Like damp soil
Like vegetable scraps upon a compost
A heady cloying warmth

I press my hands against it
And it molds around my fingers

It grows
Rich and
Earthy dark
Like chocolate, like mud

It ferments
And fantastic things happen
Like pumpkin tendrils

It is procreant
And fertile
Just add liquid
The sweet sap of our thighs
heaving sighs
And it grows
rampant and unruly

It is an organic thing.
It is a wild thing.
