Redfox & The Blackbird Poem by Ziyanda KUBONI

Lay down in the shadow of my wings
Allow my feathers to caress you gently
In circular rings
Allow my beak to touch your skin vehemently
Just once
Lay in the nest of my passion
I want to ensnare you in deep affection
Let me sink my claws into your skin
Claim you as mine
Clench my skin under those incisors
Like a red fox
Tear me apart and wrap me up in a box
I will always be your prey
Although being your vixen would be better
I will cover your beautiful face with my black wings
But honey to my dismay
You never stay
You want to soar high like an eagle
And I want that for you, that's what love is.
Now all I do is send you flying kisses
As I watch from above with my binocular vision.
