Confessional Hokey Pokey
Confession: there is no more intelligence in “I.”
I am now “we.”
You are me.
We are huddled together
in pixels,
in zeros and ones.
All existence flattened
into an em dash—
inside the upside-down.
You put your whole self in,
you put your whole self out—
that’s what it’s all about.
Do we burst into pixie dust now?
Orgasm as vibrational oneness?
Shake tail feathers?
Plump bosoms?
I love.
I serve.
I remember God.

All existence flattened into an em dash was very enjoyable
Thank you, hb! 🙂
I love playfulness and provocative nature of this poem. I want more.
As you wish! 😉
While Hokey Pokey is in the title, I still wasn’t expecting the Hokey Pokey in the middle.
I also love how “Do we burst into pixie dust now?” pulled me back to “pixels” because I was convinced I read pixie dust already, so fantastic use of sound.
Last stanza was pretty killer, too.
