It's a terrible thing, I know a beautiful young woman who harms herself with a razor. Butter and toast. It's a terrible thing. We kiss a lot as she bleeds. And yes, oh yes, It's a terrible thing. Blood flows down her breast onto the soft curves of her ivory torso To mix with my sweat and raw kisses. It's a terrible thing. The white marble goddess arches towards my mouth Stone wheels sharpen the blade. Her lips - red stains. It's a terrible thing. Blood in spiderwebbed rivulets fall. She burns a smile like talons into my skull. I'm bought and sold in the house of a tortured Venus. Alley of torment and ecstasy. Dracula licks her jewel box glitter and drinks her till whiskey blind. A ******* mad hatter. It's a terrible thing. Please stop, I say heavy with longing. Which drives her on as one wound begets another. In this laboratory of sanguine obsession. My voice - musical bones like xylophone tones. And oh My God. This filler that cleaves to emptiness. This finger of the void - black angels. Her grin upon me like the Ta in ******. A merchant of desire whom I love darkly. This ponderous monk black night of red children falling from mother. To be savored. I dive into her red. My mouth wild cherries and rushing fire. I am dragon's teeth and tongue lapping. All cleavers and kisses. She smiles spreading in a bed of red gauze. We are good people. And oh yes, my sweet. It's a terrible thing.
