Kissing is important

Kissing is important

I would like to be kissed soon
Nothing more
Nothing less
Just kissed
On the mouth
Corners reaching for corners
Feeling a pair of eyes on me
Even though mine are closed
You can just feel that shit, you know?
Tongue tracing the lines of my book
Abdomen explosion
My heart is likely broken now
That’s what that was
Like in France they call orgasms tiny deaths,
But really I think the death starts with
That
First
Kiss
This musician told me once
“you gotta have imagination to be a good kisser”
Then he called me darlin'
oh
my
god
darlin
See what I mean?
Call me darlin' and
Christ, even the thought of it makes me curl up inside
Like a little baby girl
Hands on faces
Sweet little smiles come
Flirting with each other as they graze
Like cows in a field
Happy, worry-free
Just thinking about eating and chewing, you know?
Until the slaughter people arrive
I wonder if they know what’s coming
When they pile onto that truck
Clones and drones and bones and a sense of impending doom
Hm, not sure they’re that intelligent
What their brains are capable of
Brains behind foreheads as they touch
The metal of the fire escape presses into my ass
I’ll remember this shit I guess
Panties on the floor
Yeah
Kissing is important
Nothing more
Nothing less
