Song Of SummerA Poem by Dustin Orin Talley
My snake died last summer
And I’m not too sure That the burning of her body Was not a sacrifice to a time and a girl That I once had As here I sit here, flooded by emotion It’s not just the wasted devotion Or the awesome motion It’s the heat The heat I felt as you licked my breast And gave me chills It kills to know I took your innocence But I can just apologize and pulverize my mind And though I have no pictures physically I have a dictionary of everything we were And it may sound absurd But I remember every shiver And tear And smile That is what I miss Licking the tears off your smiling lips © 2011 Dustin Orin Talley |
