Denial

Tonight, I shall smirk and produce cactus in my bones. Reverberating your conjured beds exhausted me. Tonight I shall not be a bean of pelican feathers, a china crockery. With the burial of your carbon mouth, I burn till the sky thumps. And then you shall explode the way I did.

Your clandestine face is like a green moth today. Pulverizing. Torrential.

The language of lonesome affairs strikes and burns my ginger thigh, moisture resides, phosphorescent sigh.

Scream and watch that burning sky. Swallow the eclipse. Revolve and rotate like wild sharks. A stack of lipids and liquids shall only entice you. You leap and crawl. Your skin is that of marine molluscs, fidgeting, concealing.

Tonight, I refuse to entertain you.

The burning wax is still my favourite companion.

  3. I think this is about opportunitistic behavior of men who only see for physical pleasure in women. “Reverberating your conjured beds exhausted me. ..it says clearly that she is vexed with lust on bed. And last line ” explode the way I did..” says you want to show him what loneliness is and you want to know him to know the value of your presence not just physical activity..kind of revenge. Even she want to avoid him she still feel lonely which you wrote about that in ” language of lonesome affairs..and in the last paragraph you said that the body and lust only he is wanting that from her in beautiful line about sharks and lids and liquids that entice…well done..not much difficult it’s neat.

    1. You nailed it once again.
      I am happy you know the wants in this piece. It’s simple and clearly targeting that part of male society who are obsequious towards female perhaps!

      All the parts are well understood and explained by you.
      Thank you so much!

  10. Yes, be yourself, despite how certain members of society attempt to manipulate you into change. Your last line is perfect in encapsulating the sentiment in this piece.
