The Pierced Nothing
Her skin is textured fabric
and a lovely pair of…odd eyes of ink
black and sheen green.
Cherry cheeks, heavy-handed
for his amusement.
Lips sewn to silence
just the way he likes her.
Living only through him

In dark corners of my heart’s slums,

For some strange pleasure,

And all the words they had to say,
My wounds turned greener,
And the pain was here...

Smoke and smoulder.
No one knows whether he will return safe,
When he leaves his abode.
The mosques, the temples and the churches:
The sacred places...
