the moon drips down my back
come come come here to me, sweet little child.

he comes up behind me. kisses my neck.
misses kisses. he misses. misses missed me. the words.
pushes my hair back. licks up my neck. sends chills.
tears rolling down his cheek. wetting my shoulders.
pump pumping his heart beat through me. i feel. i feel it all. dripping moonlight. dripping in it. i feel i feel i feel it all. all around me.
tears everywhere.
holding my hips. he keeps me steady.
sobbing into my neck.
sobbing through the moon. moon child baby.
sweet baby darling. pink baby child. you are the moon and you are me.

he puts me on my knees on the cold floor.
pulls my hair down. puts his hand around my neck. positions my lips open.
pours his poison down my throat.
acidic. sweet. spicy. full bodied. he really is delicious.
runs his finger down my neck.
swallowed him whole.
happy daddy.

spits in my mouth. poisonous eyes. those **** eyes. poison, i tell him.
he smiles. leads me to the window. shows me the sticky sunset.
kisses down my neck again. eyes closed. i feel his heart.
quickens.
window open spine chills.

he pushes me out and lights a cigarette as i bleed out on the sidewalk.
sits on the couch and sips his whiskey.
