My razor
actually worked today
((I’m smooth
like water))
to rid away
all the hair that
my father passed on
with his ape-gene.
I sprinkle
my soft leather eyelids
with tinkerbell’s pixie dust
to keep them up and floating
so I can pay you
with attentive stares.
I crushed azalea’s petals.
I sought their juices
to mix with
my mother’s milk. With
just a hint of strawberry,
I used the raven’s claw
to spread it on my lips.
They beg for your attention,
They crave your inhibitions..
I wore that skirt you itch for
so you would love me more.
It hugs me like a silk cocoon.
It hugs me like my legs will
((hopefully))
be a vice around your waist.
I ransacked the butterfly’s nest,
the Africa and Monarchs leapt
like startled dogs. I was cruel
and sedated them with my breath
that I coated with sleeping powder.
I wove them into my nest of hair
to intensify the color of my eyes.
My breasts are bared
proud of this woman’s body,
proud of this contraption
that you worship
with your eyelashes.
I painted a centipede
to wrap around my ankle
for my own selfish needs;
I wanted to adorn that joint
merely to show off
how slender
delicate
I am.
I painted and stretched
myself taut. Do you
love me any more?
I want it so you’ll
never look away; I
always need your gaze
for you are my frog
prince that will save
me from the ugly
girl inside. Teach me
how to laugh and
give myself up. I
want to be your
moonshine caterpillar clay.
Burn me with your
initials branded.
Make me yours; teach
me how to give you
everything you ask
for and even more.
I stapled a tiger’s tooth
to my heart to help
protect us from those
who rage with jealousy.
I wore it to
show you I’m strong
that I can handle you.
I slipped on mud-rings
they ((sadly)) caked under my
fingernails. I love the taste
of you beneath them.
I’ll suck out your soul
with my spider’s tongue. Just
to make myself beautiful.
