[00:01.95] My Love Is Too Much -Vanessa Daou
[00:46.734] My love is too much
[00:53.52] It embarrasses you
[00:59.217] Blood poems babies
[01:05.03] Red needs that telephone
[01:08.370] From foreign countries
[01:11.122] Black needs that spatter
[01:13.952] The pages
[01:16.51] Of your white papery heart
[01:46.36] You would rather have a girl
[01:50.101] With simpler needs
[01:52.165] Lunch sex undemanding
[01:55.829] Loving
[01:58.198] Dinner wine bed
[02:03.349] The occasional blow job
[02:06.337] And needs that are never
[02:08.09] Red as gaping wounds
[02:12.757] But cool and blue
[02:14.936] As television screens
[02:16.460] In tract houses
[03:54.779] Oh my love
[03:57.618] Those simple girls
[04:00.67] With simple needs
[04:03.473] Read my books too
[04:07.223] They tell me they feel
[04:09.360] The same as I do
[04:12.832] They tell me I transcribe
[04:15.176] The language of their hearts
[04:18.728] They tell me I translate
[04:21.616] Their mute unspoken pain
[04:26.663] Into the white light
[04:29.841] Of language
[04:32.852] Oh love
[04:35.633] No love
[04:36.188] Is ever wholly undemanding
[04:42.176] It can pretend coolness
[04:45.112] Until the pain comes
[04:47.839] Until the first baby comes
[04:52.987] Howling her own infant need
[04:56.883] Into a universe
[05:00.411] That never summoned her
[05:08.674] The love you seek
[05:10.762] Cannot be found
[05:13.202] Except in the white pages
[05:17.404] Of recipe books
[05:25.84] It is cooking you seek
[05:28.132] Not love
[05:31.364] Cooking with sex coming after
[05:34.459] Cool sex
[05:36.861] That speaks to the penis alone
[05:40.843] Not the howling chaos
[05:43.801] Of the heart
