Skin a webbing
Swabbing the leaking life back in
Collarbones a spiderweb
Eyes sunken 
Titanic in an ocean of a face
A harp created from ribcage
The spine a wicked wrought iron gate 
Slamming through the shifting  tundra of back
Tumble weeds where lush gardens were
Why are you running your rivers dry?

I am unreally smooth
I am a leopard, slinking swirling sinking my self 
Until you are caught
You don't relizes you are prey 
Until halfway down my throat
Even then you don't mind
The chase enchanted you
The flickering of my silky body
Entwining yours to mine
Slipping in and out of reach
Tantalizing and delicious to watch
Slight and strong wanting to be close and needed
A liquid firestorm dancing around you
The danger impossible, yet so arousing
Animalistic need 
So you cuddle into my fangs
And spoon the rips of flesh
And want to die so badly
If only to be closer to me.

She carved rainbows in the air with curves of her shoulder blades
Honeysuckle skin enticed others 
Calling out to be savored
Dangling herself across the room
The want slicing into the underside of your eyelids
Desire burning paths through the coils of your guts
Hooking talons into the small of your spine
Enchanting parasite

i would wake
singing your mind
painting myself
purple and blue
Striping myself of my usual camouflage
you painted to match
but then you added pink
and now there's no more purple left
so i scrub
and paint myself yellow

*to Alex

Bittersweet socks of chocolate
Cap the knobs on your spine
The bones undulate under
Your luminescent skin
I touch you
You shudder
I feel your body tearing
Pulling closer and crawling away
Spikes in your eyes
Writhe with hate
Acidic tears burn me
Sizzling as they drip into
My broken mouth
