New Mother - Angels of Light

Remove my hand from your pocket

Pluck my eye from your socket

I am the secret sharer

Bleeding knees your covers

Show me the texture of your pregnant tongue

Prepare my mind with emotion

Cut me a delicate soft wet place

I am your new mother beginning

Why am I so cruel?

Why am I so cruel?

Why am I so cruel?

Why am I so cruel?

My body is a contorted accretion

Your body is my only possession

I am a stranger in your stomach

Calling out your name underwater

Feed me with rose-scented honey milk

Configure my mind with your voice of silk

I bring you the gift malignant

I am your new mother beginning

Why am I so cruel?

Why do I love you?

Why are you so beautiful?

Because you are cruel
