Notes This is the first of two poems. They can be read as separate, unrelated poems or as loose sequels. For organization sake, I'm going to post each as a separate work but link them in a series. It'll show the link at the bottom of the page to the next one in the series. Also, this first one could be read as anyone/anyone and a lot is left implied or open to the reader's imagination. I tried to reflect the range of possibilities in the tagging on the stuff (like characters and pairings) that was left ambiguous in the actual poem. It also should be noted that I was heavily inspired by beat poetry for this. Think ani difranco. I can hear the words get emphasized and pauses in my head, but formatting feels inadequate to get that across. But I still tried. --------- Tear-stained face (peppered with kisses). "Please don't," -- unheaded words. Thrust hard; Short cry. Hot - Tight Clenching - White tiny fists grip his shoulder; scared face buried in his hair. Hearts beating. Hips moving. Time slowing. Hope dying. Then ...he comes. Hot milk in a red hole; limp form on a motel bed. "I'm sorry," whispered softly. Too late to forget. --------- Please drop_by_the_archive_and_comment to let the author know if you enjoyed their work!
