Poem! Seduce submission
Long haired scythe dyeing
Tempt wicked promise cues
Lying rose petal scented
Moist labor, legs holstered
Satanic verse praise panic
Attics static wooden floor
Board music reciting
Ancestral volleys gratis
Thrust new words
Slip torn perspicuous
Bouquet of gadgets
Disassemble metronome
Presumed soothing
Crash, clank, frolic
Turned over, balanced
Pen and tray treating
Superficial wounds spit
Slap, heaving, long drawn
Allusions, thick traffic
Swim, swarm, beach blanket
Plastic book cover, kindle
Prayer, bleeding
Ask for her name again
Before you close your eyes
Turtles flop their wings
A thousand eagles deep.
