Two cats

sorenbarrett

A stinging orgasm

Banquet turned to dust

Dancing on razorblades

Sleeping in a bed of fishhooks

 

Acid blood dissolves the years

Salty tears over open wounds

drip into pools of bled dreams

rancid in the grime of time

 

Once friends

two cats tied tail to tail

hung over a clothesline face to face

Words disembowel

    every now and then & for good reason, words fail me ..
    my visit here today, left me dumb .. and was indeed, such an occasion ..
    exquisitely poemed .. sorenbarrett
