I Need Your Salty Succulence

I need your salty succulence
Sweating alongside my tongue
Dipped with your orange masterpiece
A painting in my mouth
Only guarded by the teeth in my half-cocked smile
But your rancid aftertaste
Causes me to gag
And I want you out of my system
Out, out
Leave all that you have inhabited
You leave a bitter flavor
That refuses to brush away
