Pray

Split me, canyon style,

My yawning maw ribcage

Showing pink-wet guts.

Take another step and let me swallow you.

 

(Come) it's soft in here.

(Come) it's safe in here.

(Come on) spill love,

Let my tongue-heart taste you,

A prayer to muscle.

 

For love is a muscle,

A soft, warm muscle;

And woman is muscle,

A strong bend muscle.

 

Woman resides in your eyes on my skin.

The prayer hides in the sighs of your sin.
