I Knew You Hungry
FRAGILE - bold word ;;
illiterate & disturbed coming
& going unheard, ransacking
looking for a something not
here (long gone) take me,
take me where you fell,
so i can fall too- (closure)
misnomer, what a wonder
_____ shaped & reshaped-
your clay beauty tacked
to the wall for your
pleasure (alone). i have
no hands, your hands, i
have no insides, come in
side--- no harm in
another ride. between you
& me, i knew you need, i
knew you hungry, i know
my clumsy way. it was
just an accident, a
slip here & there where
wear & tear collide
(lust is a monster
under my bed) love is
a beast undercover
seeking more more
more- no more- so
much more in store.
i had ghosts sneaking
thru my locked door,
sliding me inside their
inside, covered with
whispers & shivers &
sweat. let me go, let
me k(no)w what it is
you want, let me share
your pain.
