Poem by Isis I’Yon
I wish I could sip the sunlight Cup it in my hands and let it warm me to my elbows I wish it’d coat my tongue like honey and soothe the static in my stomach I bet it tastes like laughter and how chrysanthemums sound Like joy unadulterated Like something so good it unzips you right down to your DNA
