Vertiginous
Loss of brain
Can't quite focus
In this ****** of ecstasy
Climaxing
Her pink body on top of mine
Metallic clangs and
Plastic bangs
We connect
Cupping her hips
we meld our metals
together.
Together we sit
Fitting leg in leg
Arm in arm interlocking
Her body on top of mine
The smell of her plastic
grazing my seat
Her bottom, underneath
stained with gum and disregard
I keep
Upon my lap
the tickle of her back
set a distance from my own
a way to come closer
pink on pink metal on metal
we sit
together.
Together we are proud
Publicly alone
Embracing in Totality
Windows close around us
Fits of Dysfunction
The Wonky Garbled Mess
Fading to Chaos
to nothing...
blackened dizziness
of unreality
as we sit
encircled
embracing
forever
alone
together.
