I AM LEARNING TO LOVE HER

for salome

My chest, my breasts, my nipple, thy tongue
Don’t let him tell you you’re just a slut filled with my cum
My legs, my thighs,
the space in between                                                                                                                                                                         where the stars and cosmos align
Don’t let them tell you you’re just one of them faggots

                                                                                                                          to the belly, be kind

My throat, where I gag,                                                                                                                                                                          to my mouth, to my temples
In between to my forehead
Where I kiss her good night 
To remind her she’s perfect
When she’s down on her knees, where she prays
To remind her she’s beautiful
When her eyes burn bright red, fully ablaze
