Music Box
glass opening
for her eyes
hands feeling
between my thighs
emotional carousel
twisting and twirling
silver knob unwinding
time to watch me
dance to a rhythm
until I die
til the music ends
when she says goodbye
a broken ballerina
on a stage
not whole anymore
just spinning
inside a cage
useless music box
full of toys
dirty trinkets
for her joy
battered dancer
box of shame
doesn’t spin quite right
doesn’t sound the same
just a pawn
to her game
one that’s always
played the same
ballerina body
slowly turning
open box
repeating silence
for her eyes
hands feeling
between my thighs
emotional carousel
twisting and twirling
silver knob unwinding
time to watch me
dance to a rhythm
until I die
til the music ends
when she says goodbye
a broken ballerina
on a stage
not whole anymore
just spinning
inside a cage
useless music box
full of toys
dirty trinkets
for her joy
battered dancer
box of shame
doesn’t spin quite right
doesn’t sound the same
just a pawn
to her game
one that’s always
played the same
ballerina body
slowly turning
open box
repeating silence
