Box Cutter


Before all the motions
there is the long hello
Wading through emotions
and getting to know
what's inside
before the plunge
into another life
 
Seems like
being resurrected virgins
When nerves scatter your senses
and experiences
So you start from scratch
 
As a first touch
upon the surface
How your head is tilted
subconsciously, wanting
the kiss to be
the perfect beginning
 
This is the movie where
the boy gets the girl
right away
and the credits will roll
like cinnamon buns
in our fingers
With coffee in the morning
 
Because we're not kids
anymore, and time
reminds us, as an ache
So time to break things
free, in your rooms;
32C
 
It's what's inside that counts
We agree with our hands snatching
what isn't ours
Making it ours
I hope you like stamina
It's what I got
instead of big arms
 
So much taller; I am
able
to do the blunt force trauma
from behind, as
I pull your head back
and suck that rapture
out of your mouth
Capturing your oxygen
for myself

Your hand reaching back
grabbing my ass
Sacrificing walking straight
tomorrow
for the exquisite euphoria
of tonight's
intense persistence
 
I love how your eyes try
to pay me back, during
this thrashing with scissors
 
Who the hell runs with them
anyway
 
The bed is our banishment
as we embellish being sinners
Of skin and pliable bones
forming impossible formations
Where my ending
repeats itself
during the middle
of your movie
 
Moving in sync is hopeless
You have yours
I have mine
Wild horses buck
frantic
As if a snake threatens
their legs
But I grab your mane
and rhythm comes naturally
once the snake is buried
alive
 
I'll piston until
your belly button
is an outty
I'll push it back in
with my tongue
after the flip
 
Even as
the next door neighbors
call 911
and report a stabbing
Telling them
it must of been
with scissors
 
Because damn
you're so loud
when I'm killing it.
