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

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.
Reminds me of a song "Good Girls Don't But I Do" She'd be telling you, "Good Girls.....
