She likes to be licked and painted
from both sides, by two hungry avatars
while the murky ceiling plays Slayer
and rice paddies glisten
in the early evening

she watches through a dollar store telescope
me shining rows of tables
dropping lace from balconies
for me to salvage from threadbare rugs
she's got me in a web of bright
dancing pentagram rays
each beam separate from the alphabet
that once constrained my purple fangs

we are lovers laughing
on a shattered windshield
letting the engine cool
on our sinister spines.
