 eat of my rib
i crave your mouth, your voice, your hair. silent and starving, i prowl through the streets. bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts me, all day i hunt for the liquid measure of your steps. / i hunger for your sleek laugh, your hands the color of a savage harvest, hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails, i want to eat your skin like a whole almond. / i want to eat the sunbeam flaring in your lovely body, the sovereign nose of your arrogant face, i want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes, / and i pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight, hunting for you, for your hot heart, like a puma in the barrens of quitratue.
 
this room, how well i know it.
now they’re renting it, and the one next to it,
as offices. the whole house has become
an office building for agents, businessmen, companies.

this room, how familiar it is.

the couch was here, near the door,
a turkish carpet in front of it.
close by, the shelf with two yellow vases.
on the right—no, opposite—a wardrobe with a mirror.
in the middle the table where he wrote,
and the three big wicker chairs.
beside the window the bed
where we made love so many times.

they must still be around somewhere, those old things.

beside the window the bed;
the afternoon sun used to touch half of it.

. . . one afternoon at four o’clock we separated for a week only. . . and then—
that week became forever.
