the tip of
my tongue
like a wiggling fish
trapped between
her teeth
she nulls my speech
her hair is my shroud
each ragged nail digs
into the flesh of my thighs
parting them
exposing me
her mouth on my cunt
leaves me with her
name on my
lips
waiting to be born
instead a hum
that tingles and weaves
its way into my ears

her mouth is red and
sticky
it tastes slightly acidic
musky scent that i lick
off her lips
she licks me like a candy
her tongue moving just
right to find the weak spaces
of me
the ones where i have become
threadbare
little more than flesh and bone

when i bite my hands
she places her mouth over
the indentations of teeth
and sucks
sucks the poison out of me
afterwards
i am small and huddled on the sheets
her thighs spread loosely
the stickiness finding its way
into my heart
her nails have left designs
on me
little ribbons of flesh
half moons
little smiles that greet me even
as her heart thuds beneath
my hand

her voice shivers and crawls
across me
leaving me pinned and breathless
i am in her shadow
my hand between her thighs
her mouth wet and open
the saliva shining
her eyes dark with my reflection
this is home
the crooked feel of her fingers
and the dig of her knees
her words slipping down my throat
like spit
this is home
