menstrual musing

typing away 
beating the red deadlines
on a back-breaking lane 
too narrow and shallow,
so much for 
sweaty crevices,
swerving interests, 
sneaky devices.

but unstoppable:
surging pain 
throbbing temples 
letting go of the brakes

now lying down,
under the playful moon,
closing my eyes to see you:
pulling up my dress
to rest your chamomiled palm 
on the belly in distress.

a speedy release into the warm folds
of a hovering but fleeting cloud,
away from the real stains on my cold sheets.
