ANATOMICAL VENUS

frozen in pleasure, my pinup girl,
back arched, legs folded,
skin pinned to the table.
your butterfly lungs flutter for me.
i rend tendons from fat with broken nails.
i eat your heart out.
i lick away your dying breath,
get drunk on your blood, crack open your bones,
and your marrow seeps out to kiss me back.
