on the roof of my mouth, lipstick smack in the middle of my heart
Scarlet, rouge,
Amber, cherry
Jam
Crimson
Ruby.
Take that big fat lip — stick and
Smear it again and again and again on my chest across my heart
Rub my teeth in deep pinks of tulips,
A big fiery ball
Of your
Berry scented lipstick,
So i can know I’m alive,
Reddened saddened
Fiery
Ocre
Merlot
Burgundy
Terracotta
Teracotta
Teracotta
terracotta
Lipstick.
Take my hand in yours,
Orbs of warmth
Rub my body
Rub my body
Rub my body in
Kisses
Hugs
Bonfires
Love
Love love
Passion
Passion
Passion
Lipstick.
