I want a man who calls me darlin' Whose roots touch mine Not the same soil, but the same shade Close enough to drink from the same ground water I want a man who has two hearts One for each of mine Art and dirt, or roots and sky Close enough to speak the same dialect of difference I want a man who takes me dancing Whose steps match mine Who lets me come and go in rhythm long developed Close enough to flying to call it the same name I want a man who calls me darlin' -Elena Nola
