I’ve always had a thing
for strange, dark men
it started at Jareth’s glam teased mullet,
winged eyeliner, magic dance moves,
smooth af tights and goth orb raving
no ******* wonder
I ended up with the Goblin King
trying to take my baby away
locking me in mazes
just fear me, love me, do as I say…
and when that chilly November
shook me awake
finally
the words I kept tasting
over and over
on my thawing lips:
you have no power over me
