I am a loose woman
a woman with a loose pen
I pluck feathers
and brush them over white leaves
I follow their flight with my loose hand
and weave loose calligraphic beads.

I am a loose woman
a woman with loose feet
I rustle the grass
and scatter it over the trees
I suck their sap with my loose tongue
and feed my loosely hung small breasts.

I am a loose woman
a woman with a loose mind
I sway the willows
and sculpt reindeers from dead trees
I ride on their horns with my loose hair
and spin, ephemeral dreams.
