Literature
You do not whore around,
You spend your nights
reaching
for Apollo’s robes.
You’re as hot
as New Orleans
in mid-July, and
as fierce
as her gumbo.
But, he is light-years
away and your fingers
ache with tired
insecurity.-
a disaster in
your own
moon skin.
Even if it fucking hurts,
you can still taste
his heat on your tongue.
Gods be damned,
you’re a butterfly-
( even if mounted
to a bed. )
One day,
you will find yourself
and fly away.
