#gulp
i choke on these words that have fled from containment i sob and i take gulps of air like hydration i starve to maintain this excess of hate that sits loud and patient across my whole navel i blame these sharp words that sneak out through my teeth they lash out at you as you stare wide at me my headlights alarming your doe eyes (no malice apparent but it breeds behind light) as i speak in these slices of sentencing spite (then i silently lie and regret in the night) thought i grew this act out, but i caved it all in let it push its way up let it surface my skin just to see myself lose what i thought was a win

spite
I'm sorry that I can not swallow my tongue To appease you Gulp it whole and choke To make you feel good I'm sorry that my body trembles When I think of your hands Grasped tightly around my neck At that point, you are in more control of me Than I have ever been

Tongue in Cheek
he gulps me into peaces __ led to his bed. eyes kissed and asked to come and go to where I dream and imagine but do not think.   he gulps me into pieces.   oh my god oh my god oh my god.   and when he sees I am at last in peaceful,   speaks.   god could but desires not to answer all who call out to him. thus the human was invented: an imperfect messenger a version of his image that answers you in pieces of peace as best as any human can
