SHARP FOURTH



I. Lactate
Chest heavy, panting, short of breath.

6 men swarm, hands clutching, gripping my form. Muscles aching/stressed/strained, worn down from running; but in their grasp I will not relinquish lest my point not made. Exhausted, thighs on fire from the flee, arms on fire from their clasp; I remain stubborn.

In their hands a trophy, greed/control/gloating.
furnishing their homes; shame/secret/fetish.

How I fucking hate you.


II, Lactate
Chest heavy, panting, short of breath.

3 women gather, hands caressing, supporting my form. Skin soft/tender/warm, sensitive and molten from their touch; in their arms I offer my milk until we drift asleep. Exhausted, body euphoric from their contact, bosom euphoric from their lips; I remain blissful,

In their hands myself; cherished/supported/valued.
SHaring their homes; pride/equal/affection.

How I love you dearly.



I will disregard whatever
image I was created in

I will chew it up
spit it out

with my own image in mind
I will sculpt my form

rituals, ingredients, anti-procedure
transmutation to something far more valuable

self-realisation::self-alchemy
I change my messengers

we are not as different as you believe
physiologically, on a fundamental level
we are made the same
structurally, relative to you my body is not special,
neither is my brain
our messengers may differ, but they can change

through a sense of alchemy
with simple ritual abd the right ingredients
your form is permitted to redevelop, restructure
these messengers may not be native to your self
but your body is smarter than you give it credit;
it will know exactly what to do with them

see me
look at my form
accept who I am
once I walked in I saw your
posture
voice
expression
comfort
shift suddenly
I won't apologise, you two faced coward
I won't feel bad for you, you piece of shit
I will revel in your discomfort
I will bask in that stupid look on your face
I take solace in the miserable worm that you are
you would be lucky to even feel a fraction
of the love/joy/comfort that I have felt
fly my flag when the time allows
whatever helps you sleep at night
you lowly stain



there's voids
time lost; gaps in
conscience
no matter how I wish,
if I filled them; I wouldn't find
what I wanted

SHE WONT BE THERE



tonight, as with any other
our limbs intertwined, your hands
reach for mine, grasping them
I bask in your warmth:: your sweetest
smile lifts me. tender voices;
hushed, whispering stories of beauty

of so softly, crimson butterflies line my
neck/collar bones/shoulders, they migrate
and find their resting place upon my bosom
a sweet nectar>>made for you
I will share it
as we share our bodies

molten and loved
my concerns sublimate
despite others||despite our hardships
we found each other
you are my tether
my everything

I am right where I need to be,
breathing oh so heavy
cosúil le tonnta,
EUPHORIA
CONTINUES
together, in each others arms we
rest. ∎



we can change our forms together

we only need
new messengers

explore our bodies together
