A command:
Strip
We’re refugees from the sun
Outlaws in this desert pass
There’s a cruel curl in your lip
A chance this rendezvous could be our last
So I’d be a fool to resist
We find heaven in this motel
Nestled between highway markers
Part of a township that’s long since fell
Home to little more than a church, a diner, red-eyed stalkers
And countless twisted and bitter farewells
Our room with peeling wallpaper
Off-white, vertical stripes
You’re lying on the bed
As I slide down your tights
There’s a storm marching in
A perfect framing for the coming night
We won’t sleep
You kiss hard
And play for keeps
I can feel the abscess in your heart
The glistening void as I push you apart
You wince at first
But then pull me deep
My teeth graze along your thigh
My tongue traces the outside
Scratch my chest
Dig graves along my spine
Pull my blood out in rivulets
Between your delicate, pointed, fingertips
My flesh beneath your nails
Pulled tight and pale
The blood coagulates against your palms
Stigmata that you tease and lick
While the AM station preacher bellows delirious psalms
Let the brimstone burn
And the sinister snake return
A belt suffocating
Pushing you nearer to god
But ever closer to hell
I’ll kiss the recess above your clavicle
You’ll drip solemn words like honey into my ear
Offer me the false innocence of madrigals
A symphony of voices comporting as seer
We both know what comes next
I’ll control your breath
I’ll wrap my fist in your hair
I’ll push
You’ll scream
Let go
Only the determined swim upstream
Arch your back
Stare at yourself in the mirror
You and I don’t have to come undone
We could lay like this for years
You could have the remains of my love
We could worship each other’s despair
You would clip the wings of every dove
And after it all,
Just leave me here
