Contra Love

Spider love. Smashing himself into the inner crook of my foul-smelling underarm. The right one. Not the bad one. Smelling my flesh. Sniffing around me. licking me. Smitten, eager for the dance of togetherness to rear its ugly head. I gently extract him, and lavish him with a lover’s kiss. He bites my lip. Hard! A challenge. We begin our mating dance. Contra Love Written 9-24-2018 Poetry Contest: Contra Sponsor: Jesse Rowe

Thank you Lycia. I certainly felt like my little pixie muse could do something with the concept of a contra poem.
