Richard Siken- The Dislocated Room

[peachplumhoney]

I've been in your body baby and it was paradise
I've been in your body and it was a carnival ride.

i like siken, i've got crush....but this is awfully short for a poem, and its a sentiment he's expressed in other (longer) poems.

it has its own validity as a poem, i have no doubt. but i guess it doesn't do it for me because he did it before, and better.
