All the violence you can eat


absolutely everything we've ever done

has lead us to this today's particular sprinkle

and ingredients we add from there will

flavor all tommorrows whether

they be reheated or boldly refrigerated

so vow to eat sustenance other than you

this week at Tilley's on leftovers Sunday

borrowed your book of recipies

' The Celestine Prophecy' after finding

your house keys in a public bin

accidentally digested going bulimic

with my searching fingers between gulps

of unloved breakfast 'till they are retched

with a loss of appetite for your book

i'll sacrifice instead to Dionysus

as i am now quite gorged on my

own fair share of goluptious omen

cannot eat someone else's chew

on it's inside jacket you've

signed with your lips in

a shade of red which i've gnawed

and kissed you taste like silver fish

despite the beatings from your mouth

i still come back for more sharp - set-

this is all the thanks i get for baking

you that sign my body bruised

with the type that has no explanation

except to hide tonight we'll fill our mouths

with food to placate this violence

for in public no one can smell how five - star

you laugh and hold my hand

dining on your own lips though i know -

just wait 'till you take me home

in your doggy bag

a duel at paces negative

culinary broils with fleshy cutlery

another night of domestic abuse

Wolphin


The world's only recorded wolphin is a cross between a female bottle nose dolphin ( Tursiops truncatus ) and a male false killer whale ( Pseudorca crassidens ). Even her teeth show her mixed heritage: bottlenose dolphins have 88, false killer whales have 44, she has 66.


you are not a theoretical species

something that miscarried or

was still-born - you are incarnate:


i was out of the water

when you swam up to me

and rolled belly up exposing

pelvic thrusts. once i dived in

you pressed up against me

nibbled my fingers

nuzzled my crotch

rubbing me.

one hand under the fin i began

to stimulate the top of your genital slit

until your clitoris became erect.

rubbed licked and sucked despite

your thrusts and my bruised nose.

warm and muscular your labia

tough squishy spongy as you played

with my hand inside manipulating.

then stiffening shuddering more thrusting

a little vocalization. taking you to

the shallow end roll you on your side

me up on one elbow lying belly to belly.

you arch your back up taking me inside.

contractions rub my length and

your orgasm timed to mine.

cuddle you rub you talk to you

show you this wasn't just a one night fling.

i love you wolphin not because of any

sexual relief you may provide but

because you are a unique animal.

your stock is one of the few species

that seeks the company of man

on their own initiative. this is special.

not to be abused.
