Beautiful notes of dirty poets


It is like something was running in our heads besides the car she drove. At a signal, she looked into my eyes like a man would always want to be looked by a woman and there were parts of me nervously on fire. She rolled her eyes and it was then all of me. I remember her stare and my dead slow pulse and the car with the loud music.

It is like something had turned on besides the radio in the car she drove. At another signal, she gently pressed her thumb against my skin, shoved her fingers in my mouth and I swear I could taste how my next few hours, next few days, next few weeks or whatever would taste like. I remember the night was velvet blue.

We reached the kind of hotel that people use for nothing but fucking on a really bouncy mattress that has seen several of lovers like us, bleeding between its five star snow white sheets. The room was royal. A place that royally saw us, held its arms out like a God almighty, and said “Go crazy, kids. No one’s watching.”

It is like something we try to love what we cannot tame. Especially when it is an angry woman and the things she carries. She pretended to know my name and offered to play titanic. She’d been the ocean where I gone down on. It was my skin that crawled underneath her fingernails and it was me between her bent knees. She seemed to have left everything tender at her dressing table. I remember my heart beating out of my head.

It is like some dirty kind of poem you don’t tell your parents about. In half-light, she ran her fingers all over like she was reading words carved into my skin, carefully binding them together into a poem. I heard it playback in my head as I drifted into the most peaceful sleep. She left for home with haikus printed in black and blue on her neck and my name bruised onto her thigh. I remember either of us were dirty kinky poets.
