You called me “Cochon”
The night you told me
So I hit you hard
I hit you so hard
The tumour felt it
I woke up crying
Face up in your lap
Lapping up your tears
Like a young swallow
Swallows its mother’s
Face-full of bile-worm
And I said to you
I don’t want to love
A living headstone
And you called me “Chatte”
Practicing naked
Downward-facing dog
Before your pelvis
With less fur, more *****
Regurgitating
***** of skin, of taint,
Tainted skin, birthmark
Marked malignant skin
Like a mother bird
For her naked chick
Shed of its cancer
By my grating tongue
And I called you “Chien”
You called me for help
Through your sealed eyelids
Enveloping eyes
You no longer own
Only for a kiss
And so I kiss you
I kiss you so hard
On your cataract
It clears your socket
Now bloodied, benign
Like a cuckoo’s nest
And I said to you
I had hated it
When you spoke in French

Laying there stagnant
My fingers percuss
Your ivory spine
Striking tendon strings
With fleshy hammers
Filling your thorax
With the vibrations
Of a thousand wasps
Stinging at your heart
As you stung at mine
Injecting resin
Injecting reason
To stay forever
And I ignite you
You, the Brazen Bull,
Cremating your heart
Still beating “I love you”
In boiling Morse code
But howling His name
In perfumed clouds of
Carbon Monoxide
Insensitively

I am your platter
Of sterling silver
Serving up a pig
Of visible bones
Naked and dying
Suffocating on
A poisoned apple
A poisoned gag-ball
Regurgitating
Salivary screams
And my heart is set
In loveless resin
Resonating love
But never beating
Again until you
Peel away my chest
Peel away my heart
And **** out the love
Through your proboscis
Until I am just
Gag-ball, resin, bone

I scream through my teeth
With ink spilling out
From all those times I
Licked you while you slept
Tasting your nightmares
Tasting your wet dreams
Tasting the tiger
Sprawled across your back
That always claws me
When I embrace you
My tongue is blackened
By decomposing
Biblical verses
On fleshy pages
On a spineless book
And my tongue is raw
Raw and bleeding ink
From licking away
At your stigmata
At your malignant skin
At your one tattoo
Of His name, not mine

With this safety pin
Through my swollen tongue
I scream I love you
In blood splattered words
Landing at your feet
Clutching your ankles
Begging for your love
Begging for your skin
Coagulating
Then there’s me: squirming
In spasmodic fits
Empty embraces
Embracing nothing
Licking your footsteps
As you walk away
As you run away
Leaving streaks of red
Red passionate
“I love you to death”s
In pieces of tongue
Tongue and safety pin
