Menstruation

She shared with me
Her brown blood.

A sweet gift
Of divine intimacy.

She was embarrassed at first
Apologetic even.

Stating

“My period must have just started.”

I said

“Don’t worry about it, please.”

“It doesn’t bother me.”

“You’re beautiful.”

She pulled my head down
And kissed me.

She shared herself devotedly.

Her brown blood
Like words
Poetry
A painting
Or sculpture
Under construction
Vulnerable
To review.
