If the thrill of the hunt sets you a'flame I long to be the man to play your game But I'm not a beast to be satisfied with a bone No "here's a scrap" now go on alone For me, it's your divine feminine I pursue The gods felt like showing off when they crafted you Your sense, so dark, so deep, is what I'll follow Don't short-shrift my time and make my efforts hollow I'm in need of a feast - your body, your mind My cravings won't end with wrinkled sheets and a bottle of wine. Your flesh on my tongue is what I will savor I'll eat you alive, if you'll return the favor. I want to devour you whole Your spirit, your soul And once I've stripped you down to your core, Only then, my dear, will we start the chase once more.

The Chase (take 2)
If the thrill of the hunt sets you a'flame I long to be the man to play your game But I'm not a beast to be satisfied with a bone No "here's a scrap" now go on alone For me, it's your divine feminine I pursue The gods felt like showing off when they crafted you Your sense, so dark, so deep, is what I'll follow Don't short-shrift my time and make my efforts hollow I'm in need of a feast - your body, your mind My cravings won't end with wrinkled sheets and a bottle of wine. Your flesh on my tongue is what I will savor I'll eat you alive, if you'll return the favor. I want to devour you whole Your spirit, your soul And once I've stripped you down to your core, Only then, my dear, will we start the chase once more.
It's getting there. Maybe one or two more edits. Working off a thought from "Shop" from IG @shestarteditpoetry . This doesn't do it justice, but it's a start.
