pen me to page
as think you me
though i require much
ink and thought
and often linen stock
otherwise i shall smear
on shiny surfaces
you know well
and roseblood ink
is the only way to tell
anything about us
smile me and laugh
as joke often i am
i know in many circles
the laughter is of me
it's ok to joy me
joy me at will
i've cried enough
others should thrill
even at my expense
a fitting recompense
kick me and salsa
and stomp on dreams
they were part of
a short lived scene
why not let out
that angst in dance
at least that would
be the dream's
last chance
smoke me drink me
blaze me all night
whether flesh
or liquid or vapor
you deserved lust
and delight
slake me and wake me
and devour
whatever you feel just
if ever i misjudged
now i extend trust
if ink on napkins
lipstick and stains
don't prove love
from this distance
between us
choose me lose me
and go live
every desire
then call me
fall me
blame me liar
flame me burn me
and see if
i ever spend you
see if i repent you
see how your lips
can so easily earn me.
