wide wide, open wider
and bite! my finger
bleeds like rhubarb
sticky and sweet as it dribbles down

baby is a woman
twirling and comatose
baby baby / bite me bite me
i spin drunkenly and she giggles
caramel oozing between soft lips

             baby cries: your love
             is like squashed
             strawberries
             melting in the carnal heat

and bite! baby chomps
i love you
and the banana splits
like the crashing of pots and pans
in the early morning silence

take a bite! of my apple pie
i look at my baby
that st. sebastian, i think i want to marry him
that hellish beauty, angels enraptured
and i wonder: is today the prettiest day of autumn?

i love you / bite me.
