corrupted tongues (freewrite from the bus ride home)

Crawl into my throat and blow kisses of life into my vacant lungs
Etch your initials into my tonsils
Scale the roof of my tongue
Fondle the sensuous rage spilling off the edge of my lips whenever I part them to speak words I barely understand
Tiptoe onto my taste buds without malice
Be gentle and kind
Inhale the venomous air that erupts from my soul with each passing moment
I want to infect you so I won’t have to be poisonous alone
I want someone to confront my demons with me
I don’t want to face them alone
Corrupted tongues swell and explode
Don’t let me explode alone
