Savannah dreams
Something languid
rolls through
blue skies
while cumulus clouds
dig rails in my mind
A shoeless man in
Forsythe park
plays a Bob Marley
gospel medley
on a guitar with
surfer stickers
as pairs of
Junior WASPs
court on a
checkered blankets
And his polo is just so,
And her pink bow
and blond hair fall
like shampoo commercials
I smile
and watch the way a
woman in a red wig
twists balloons into animals
while the fountains
run post-parade green
...

Come back when you learn sign language
I flip through a
women’s magazine
I bought at a
Walmart
and discover that …
Huh.
Seaweed milkshakes
are the new superfood.
How about that
And look up
to see
you with
cock in your hand
Baby.
Listen.
My cunt
might be willing to
hear you out if you
shoved your hand
wrist deep
and signed
“I’m sorry”
until your
skin pruned
and that’s
the only part
of me you
took seriously.

And yet
You fucked me over like
nothing mattered
while I stood like
a Valkyrie over
your body
ready to
dick kick
anyone
who wanted to hurt you.
But now I’m the one
who wants to hurt you.
So I’ll step
into an embrace
I use to think was sacred
long enough for
you to smell my
shampoo and the
Bath and Body Works

Taxonomy
You correctly identified me.
You showed you
weren’t afraid to
lose me
lose us.
And you showed
what I am,
who I am to you.
* * *
I agree.

I fucking agree.
I am nothing.
and nobody

a saw blade to the guts
The first time I
kissed your bleeding
knuckles,
was because you punched
a steel wall
when I called you
a liar
and I apologized
and huddled
against your
side
desperate
to feel our
languid heat
against my cheek
and we sat
here.
right the fuck here.
in the dark
sobbing
for things
we couldn't describe
and lives
we shouldn't steal
but we did
we stole those lives
stole the fuck out of them,

Toy. Master.
I’m on the bed
head on shoulder
eyes glassed over
limbs broken
waiting for
your hands to
animate me
to fucking move me,
any
way
you
please
(please)
So get your ass in here;
and take me from a stilted plastic
bit of perfection
to something a little more
pliant,
a little less perfect,
a little more
(yours)
a little
more
here
Arrange my
long, soft,
supple limbs,
and feel free to
take your time

Touched
I’m lying
in a strange bed
captivated by my own
thoughts,
and unable to
carve out the image
of our hands entwined
against these white sheets
all I can see
in the pitch black
are your veins
popped out
as your forearms shake,
and your tongue rips
my will out
in time with
the slaps
of our
sweaty bodies,
and we catch
our moans
in each other’s
throats as
your chest
hair rakes
my nipples
and
your sweat pools
at my belly button

Down bad enough to ice the red wine
I’m on the floor
half drunk at noon
Merlot
with ice
A sin in wine world,
but it’s hot.
I want a cold drink.
Wine works
best for heartache.
Something about the way I
want to die after too much,
and how that feeling lingers…
yeah, that resonates
in my
stale bones
today.
I want to roll around in
my own shit,
my back against the
kitchen island
as my cat nudges my hand
I have a half full
bottle and an
empty heart
again

An abridged dissertation of clit toys
While I prefer oral ..
you aren't dicking me
before I get off
via my clit
I'd rather you lick it,
but I don't mind
if you cuddle me
while I use the
Faithful Bullet
Ah.
The bullet.
My truest love.
I've had three:
pink, teal,
and now purple
Nothing beat the teal bullet
from three or four years ago
Fuck. The teal bullet.
um.
unbeatable.
not the rose,
not the vibrating cock rings
not the finger buzzers,

Four minutes out and all was well
Four minutes before I
ran out the door
chasing other dick
I was on your lap
listening to the way
my full name
rolled off your
southern lips
Three minutes before
I ran out the door
I said I wondered
what your neck
tasted like
and you said
"your pussy"
you called me a
twin flame
as we wrapped
around each other
like skin grafts
