the raw
starving hunger 
that bites and claws
that swallows a rainforest
slash'n'burn the fire on the frozen 
lake … poker stoking the kiln my stomach
aches saliva running down the river a mouthful 

poised on the fork … a throb of chanting drums 
rhythmic croon of labour cracking a cocoonut 
the hand grips the rosewood awl … like 
a plunger dredging up the clay the 
abyss in the pit of my stomach
like sobs of laughter gasp 
thick black hole below
pulsates like a boa
constrictor
