Animal Games |
I wanna fuck you like an animal...
—Trent Reznor
let's play
predator and prey
stalking, striking,
sucking out juice
let's play
lion cubs practicing
our pounce-and-swat
tails twitching
as we stare at one another
in suspenseful stillness
let's play
dogs greeting strangers
sniffing who's friendly
and who's been where
let's play
snakes entwined
rolling heedless down hills
in an endless spiral
let's play
parasite and host
thirsting, quenching,
burrowing in for blood
let's play
barnacle and wave
the impenetrable one
opening at the slap of
overwhelming wetness
