Eye-Toothed (03/26/2015)
Hipbones are wishbones;
Pulled apart and laid out
Torn and flipped and splayed out
Left in entemology rapture
Pins and pleasure
Night terror capture.
A familiar weight sinks
Touching my adrenaline
Stop--oh god dont let it stop
Torso bruised like carrion
Picked apart, left dizzy; panting
Staring a thousand miles past this ceiling
Letting you take everything and loving it
Swallowed this second hand feeling
For the thousandth time you'll leave your marks
Like bible verse; runes stinging, pulsing, crucible hot
My pleads are muffled by your serene pale flesh
Minds' mirror for my own, writhing, coiling in silence
As it ought.
And to think it started with a touch.
A haunt.
A kiss in a crowded, noisy kitchen.

I keep coming back to read Eye-Toothed. The first two lines have created an image in my head which I cannot shift!
