Mason Jars Are Not Only Made for Lemonade

 

let me be the one
to hold your fears,
secrets
your fantasies.

I'll keep them
in a place
that's only yours

Be a Rapunzel
kept distant enchanting
untouched

your obeah
woman
healer.

I'll express
to you
my sensuality

stack my feelings in
a mason jar
ever so delicately

place it as
denizen
on my mantle

when you are ready
to begin
this journey,

I'll cascade my locs across
the highways and draw you
in
to me
