Two Lips
by Rachelle Linda Escamilla
I've faced lilac tulips towards french windows and like ears of small children to a sparkling story theytheythey they bend they they perk. If we lay in my bed we can see tips tips sip sip sipping rain sun through rectangles through dingy screen through the smell of green compost from mashed Korean stink bugs. If you lay in my bed you can see tips of tulips sip sip sip in sun through geometric space of dust and sun resting on my bed facing west. I've placed lilac tulips in a wine glass preserve life, pop pop plurp plopped an aspirin in the bath and just watch! Watch them wither into small crusty bulbs with brown streaks. You take your dirty White hand and smear my brown breasts, you lick my dark nipples and I send my eyes to watch these lips, lips, your lips to watch the two lips purse and separate. You place your fingers into my vagina and my face bends towards Pittsburgh looking for the city lights but only finding an empty empty street where they watch. Where they all watch. |
