I woke up tangled in my headphones. I woke up slightly strangled, remembering the patient tones you used to explain to me why I was still in love with you. I woke up, no longer free, not quite sure how to undo what I said when I was sad, and tired.

Slightly strangled
You look depressed, stressed, oppressed, They say. Really? Imagine my surprise At their pitying eyes I checked the mirror To see myself clearer, I thought I looked okay. But soon that thought became my own torturous little game, and overcame my happy mind You look stressed, depressed, oppressed. You ARE stressed, depressed, oppressed. Well now I am.

You are, aren't you?
My stomach Is full Too full I wonder what it would take To get rid of it all I feel so sick So wrong

Sick of food..sick of fat
When I died No one ever saw me The wind blew through me And I was colorless

When I died
Kissing your scars Your beautiful memories, trapped in thin lines across your shoulder. You used a knife to cut them out, and they flowed down your arm, mingling and mixing with your beautiful blood, red and bittersweet and smelling of rust. And you cry and scream, but you can't escape yourself.

Kissing your scars
The rattling jingle of a belt buckle Your soft intake of breath The way it caresses my face when you set it free You trail your hands down, Down across my ribs Lightly trace my hip Leave me kisses on a collarbone I am so exposed But I don't care This darkness is warm This darkness is safe

This darkness
Books, books, So many printed pages! Whisper your sweet lies in my ear, teach me to forget my black and white world, with all the rules and expectations. Let me taste the crisp morning air in a fairytale. Let me experience pain, longing, rage, love, that I've never felt before. Carry me away on a tide of ink.

Printed Greed
Give me a Sarie tone poem like light on a Monet haystack, or Brazillian Astrud like a Matisse line. Let me lie down in a half-shuttered room in the south of France with Matisse and the soft flutter of heavy -feathered white doves, their mild calls. Only a little time, Henri, before Picasso will come with his big boots. We should take our afternoon.

The fine things worth wishing for
Take off your pants Nothing will happen. Unless you want it to. Take off your pants I love you It's your choice, no further than you want Just take off your **** pants
