you say love a string of nonsense words hung like christmas lights about our ankles & fades like broken radios losing their verve.  i say everything in case you might stay awhile but you all out the back door faster than a vulture to the ****.  my fingers twining yours & it’s not romantic when you whirl me into motion like some blue-eyed marionette.  you say i’m so familiar & don’t believe me when i swear i’m alright.  the truth is an emergency waiting to happen.  you so skinny thighs & ******* beautiful.  you sharp teeth sunk deep into my flesh & we all out of gauze.
