Adrienne Rich - Centaur's Requiem lyrics
[Adrienne Rich - Centaur's Requiem lyrics]
Your hooves drawn together underbelly
Shoulders in mud your mane
Of wisp and soil deporting all
The horse of you
Your longhaired neck eyes jaw yes and ears
Unforgivably human on such a creature
Unforgivably what you are
Deposited in the grit-kicked field
Of a champion
Tender neck and nostrils
Teacher water-lily suction-spot
What you were marvelous we could not stand
Night drops an awaited storm
Driving in to wreck your path
Foam on your hide like flowers
Where you fell or fall desire
Shoulders in mud your mane
Of wisp and soil deporting all
The horse of you
Your longhaired neck eyes jaw yes and ears
Unforgivably human on such a creature
Unforgivably what you are
Deposited in the grit-kicked field
Of a champion
Tender neck and nostrils
Teacher water-lily suction-spot
What you were marvelous we could not stand
Night drops an awaited storm
Driving in to wreck your path
Foam on your hide like flowers
Where you fell or fall desire
