Naked Foot Diorama

 

Your halo hung here
our desperate escape
fresh sign of your coming along the trail
black mitten sock
discarded tights melting into my carpet
white lines on the picture frame
my old college buddies smiling loud
thick tufts
a razor blade

your long pale proboscis and
naked foot
laughing in respite
your spread lips
crooked teeth
possessed of the common snake
snarling in repose
quote
we serve the Lord
we who rescue the forlorn Samaritan
and fuck till dawn.
