Just My Outlook

You are my nightmare

In summer, you rest

uneasy in the morning light.

In darkness you gather me

from the cold cobbles

as I hiss and whine at

you, my nightmare.

My, my, my.

Is it that you are

mine?

My nightmare of my sleep?

As I gulp down the

red rich liquid?

Mine to be had, to live

with?

To live in.

You are my button-less shirt,

my dress that rides up,

my lipstick smear,

my second baby.

You wriggle in the bed I

make for you, cry at night.

I am hard.

Hard to the touch I recoil

as you lay your bare hands upon

me, nightmare.

My thought, my sex mine

mine mine.

There is nothing now,

not a single thing that will

wake me.
