ANSWER – Carol Ann Duffy
If you were made of stone
Your kiss a fossil sealed up in your lips
Your eyes a sightless marble to my touch
Your grey hands pooling raindrops for the birds
Your long legs cold as rivers locked in ice
If you were stone, if you were made of stone, yes, yes.
If you were made of fire
Your head a wild Medusa hissing flame
Your tongue a red-hot poker in your throat
Your heart a small coal glowing in your chest
Your fingers burning pungent brands on flesh
If you were fire, if you were made of fire, yes, yes.
If you were made of water
Your voice a roaring, foaming waterfall
Your arms a whirlpool spinning me around
Your breast a deep, dark lake nursing the drowned
Your mouth an ocean, waves torn from your breath
If you were water, if you were made of water, yes, yes.
If you were made of air
Your face empty and infinite as sky
Your words a wind with litter for its nouns
Your movements sudden gusts among the clouds
Your body only breeze against my dress
If you were air, if you were made of air, yes, yes.
If you were made of air, if you were air
If you were made of water, if you were water
If you were made of fire, if you were fire
If you were made of stone, if you were stone
Or if you were none of these, but really death
The answer is yes, yes.
