You’re my dirge
I hum along with the hymn of the battle:
you v. your cock — who will come first?
(fought and re-fought, you never win … I ha ha never win)
you’ve forgotten there were previous fights. . . .
With match decided, I chant a tired requiem,
“His brain lost to his comfort; Lord, hear our prayer.”
I finger your hair, caressing, testing your scalp,
“There must/be some/thing un/der here,” a trill I release.
“You sing the song of loss of revelrie and joy in our bed,”
your cock sings a glee falsetto to me,
“you and your ditties of love.”
“That was great,” your mouth tenors out.
