cannibal queen

I love you the same I love kitten’s claw deep in cephalic
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts
It hurts
But it’s just so damned cute.
Cute but something moves behind the eyes.
Something viscous. Odious.
Thirsty.
And it tells me it’s sappy and makes me melt.
But sappy is comparing a girl to a flower, or
Telling her that being able to look into her eyes is like having jesus on speed dial.
You are sappy if a thesaurus is the baby dinosaur
That grows up to make your ideas as close to perfect as they can ever be,
coming from such vicious headwater.
