Frigid lip dragged over mine
I’m drinking straight from the fountain
and it tasted like greenery
.
Dragged across my face
a horizontal line to my ear
and I hear the ocean humming
it sounded like a song
I used to hear on the piano
.
We coil like shadows in the dark
that fumble for feeling
naked and exposed
tender and starved
It felt ravenous
and urgent
.
Laying on an altar
strewn out in shambles
stabbing to sleep
it felt like ******
it felt beautiful
