IN RESPONSE TO THE POEM WRITTEN ON THE MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE

I am a dirty lover

Drag me through the mud 

And lick me clean.

Scorch me with your love till all that’s left is an echo of a girl who drowned

Cleared of all names

Shining and new.

Thrust me up 

That you may see the stars in me.

Open your skin and let me in

That I may make home in the black between your bones

And sink.

Erupt. 

Surge the world.

Engulf me.

Let me roll in your chaos

Wrap it around myself

An inferno guarding my sleep.

Open your soul.

Let me in.

There is no you or me

Only Us.
