Tasting of Hurricane

At sixteen, he hammers

black stones

to fit over breasts,

to bless the new wine

tasting of hurricane.

Gender, to be honest,

was a smack down

of the sad plum

of one color

without its own bowl.

Well, he skinned it,

and it bled.

He too—

purple wolf blood.

Trans Ghost

Between your legs

a ghost

mounted by the wrong ghosts.
