he calls you wild, dionysus
he calls you sweltering and dangerous
and you know when he says it he doesn't mean beautiful or kind,
because a boy that means beautiful or kind isn't a living boy
and you both know this to be true.
he's bored with you, and you both know this to be true.
he makes you drink the wine and then he makes you laugh
or, not in that order.
you don't remember.

he calls you wild, dionysus
he calls you sweltering and dangerous
and you know when he says it he doesn't mean beautiful or kind,
because a boy that means beautiful or kind isn't a living boy
and you both know this to be true.
he's bored with you, and you both know this to be true.
he makes you drink the wine and then he makes you laugh
or, not in that order.
you don't remember.
