Come lay with me
Sit.
Have a beer
In the heat
And smile
At me
Please.
If I swallowed you whole
Would you mind?
Keep you in my stomach for safekeeping.
I need you inside of me
My soul, my mouth, my mind, my light…
And the thunder of your beauty is mine.
Come lay with me.
Sit.
Drink a beer with me.
And stay.
Why not stay forever?
Come here!
Let me have that hand of yours in mine
Let me take you in my arms and clasp the fear and throw it
Out
Crush it.
I’ll swallow that for you instead (Think it’ll come back up?) nausea
Make it disappear for you,
Dissolve inside
The acid
The rain…
If only to keep you happy
