All across your body,
lines written in rainbow thread.
A heart is only
so much weight, wait...why?
Would they dust your body
for the remnants?
What they have found,
is it hesitant?
Engorged like a hibiscus pistil,
covered in pollen
dripping with dew.
This is no request, but an order:
Extend your tongue
til it pulls with a bit of pain from behind your lower teeth,
open up,
and
prepare
to
swallow.
