I want to make a feast out of you
your fat swollen chops would be great
nourishment for my lovesick mind
your savory lips pack the flaky crunch
that goes
perfectly with crimson molasses like my
dear honey bear draining the life out of its belly
oh yes! the belly!
my tongue yearns for medium rare sausages …
your tubular will do perfectly
fillets off your midsection
still fresh and perfect for sushi
won’t you say?
I can’t wait to get a bite out of you and
won’t you want a piece of me too?

Yesterday is history. Tommorrow is a mystery. And today? Today is a gift that&#039;s why they call it the present.

It's like you don't want to read it to long. It'll scare you. But at the same time it's a beautifully written poem. I loved it :)

Your piece is very fascinating in a disturbing kind of way, depending on how you interpret it. I'm going to hope your not a cannibal, but if you are please get help. lol. Very mind stretching. Keep up the good work!
