You smell like turpentine
Your fingers sore, sore from scratching
We had a secret tongue
our lust tucked in bed beside us.
She was taught her sums by nuns
and yes she's fat, fat on faith
My world has ended
saved by thieves, perverts and saints
Keep your hands soaking wet
You've to give her something
I fall down and tear the skin
it's only bone that's showing
Ive been sunken holes for slings
I've been plunged and gutted
I've been tongued for dirt road boys
and their veins and organs
Does she span her legs and wooden teeth on your mattress?
Do you watch her prey?
No answer-
the obvious silence.
She was taught her sums by nuns
and yes she's fat, fat on faith
My world has ended
saved by thieves, perverts and saints
Keep your hands soaking wet
You've to give her something
I fall down and tear the skin
it's only bone that's showing
Ive been sunken holes for slings
I've been plunged and gutted
I've been tongued for dirt road boys
and their veins and organs
