compass point prick page
pencil stub draw arc
graphite arc sizzle light
burn thou insistent sun
bright head nestle elbow
heel-round graze wrist
hot mouth draw nipple
take thou body take
dawn slip closet shut
kneel love rustle silk
pant heart secret here
thou secret forest lake
forest clearing run pant
lake sedge lush back
sink back hips grass
thou liquid liquidly
tink pebble drunk glass
curtain pane open light
open break open bloom
thou blossom rose heart
thou noble gas
thou pinky thumb
thou rose glass
thou pigtail
thou pea vine
thou infant
thou coneflower
thou raw earth
bow gust sheet shiver
pitch play bend suck
cling fall pierce wet
what thou is
oh thou is
what thou am
