the jewelled hands. a finger each / peel the skin and let her blood meet the air. this is unbecoming of a lady / she says i will never marry; her mouth curves around her laugh, beckoning. taunting / if you keep going ; lover i'll be yours always / and he drinks her in. consumption / consummation / salt and iron and lust. how have they lived so long he wonders, inside her, on her, in himself, how could they breathe without it ?

a scene
the jewelled hands. a finger each / peel the skin and let her blood meet the air. this is unbecoming of a lady / she says i will never marry; her mouth curves around her laugh, beckoning. taunting / if you keep going ; lover i'll be yours always / and he drinks her in. consumption / consummation / salt and iron and lust. how have they lived so long he wonders, inside her, on her, in himself, how could they breathe without it ?
