Before, I was a miserly person
dried up, stiff, stuck, completely
wrung, stuttering, fanatical;
but this morning my skin felt unusually
cool and conscious.
My body tingled.
Suddenly I could speak and understand 2,000 languages.
My soul blossomed, my breasts budded.
I peeled back my foreskin to scrape clean
all of my obsolete
and labored presumptions.
I could see very far away.
I could sympathize with each strand of hair
stranded on the skin of each person.
Shuddering, I ejaculated for the first time
in my life, into life.
I just wanted to leap up to kiss everyone right away
and be sucked by everyone on this Earth.
I was willing to forgive and apologize to
each toe joint on each person.
Naked, I walk through the street
as the very first human.
