A Dirty Mind

it is just a lamp
you can turn it off
anytime

be agile
know what you want
and what you don't

know when to stop
when to switch it on

know how to unplug
and plug it

it is all in the mind
do not force it

come to me
let us be there

hold my hand
gently like a marsh floating in the water

let us see the world
without our minds on

let the worlds see us
as part of its garden

flowers with white petals
bees without stings

molting snakes
helpless to the kiss of the worms

what do you really want from me?
what?

i am naked
do not dress me up
