Curiosity Killed the Cat

Curiosity killed the cat
How far will we go
To perpetuate self-destruction
Wallowing in self pity
Until our throats close up.
Staccato sounds and guttural groans
Unintelligible murmurs
Morse code on my shoulder
Giving way to the last request 
For open communication.

Curiosity killed the cat
Did you bring your night vision goggles?
We’ll venture deep into the foliage
Tonight we’ll test boundaries.
Is it malleability or elasticity
Of that which we push off from
Trying to reap what we’ve sown
From the greener grass.

Curiosity killed the cat
But the cat was always dead
No fur balls to hack
For strapped to its back
Was a ticking time pack
With old brass buttons
It couldn’t help to press.

Dreams

It is easier to share your bed and my body
Than to share your bed and my dreams.

To view your instant gratification on my chest
Verses getting it off my chest.

I can lie with you naked for hours
But probe me to expose myself
And I’ll quiver like a cornered dog
Pushing you away by challenging you
So I may run at the first opening.

Why did I come?
I knew this would happen.
You ask me about my favourite position;
I like it on top
With my heart and mind aligned.
