wonderfully, the sun is there

by Gwendolen Aube

in the forest i am a little bit home -

small birds sing in my head &

critters gather to gnaw my feet


wonderfully, the sun is there

screaming again, beautiful

as always. i headbang birds

from my skull into the sky


above me, like throwing a bra

i stare the sun in the eyes

agape & go red all over 


he can touch me forever,

i think, i am his disney princess,

i am in his story book with animals

and wood, screaming the lyrics
