Hunter is the perfect stripper stage name

you are a convenient deer corn garden,

all yellow and sexy in the dead grey dust,

on a bed of dry brown pine needles you lie:

winked white eyes and shaky neon bulbous.

 

oh, I’m the one 12point son-of-a-buck

stupid enough to nibble at your

bountiful glow

 

little do I know,

there’s a 7milimeter barrel

peeped from a blind spot

in the back lot,

a cold steely death-cough

waits to drop me, skin me, eat me up.

 

love is an echoed gunshot

that happy horseshit hears

ping-ponging through the trees

& thoughts

of the frostbitten,

squirrel-shat forest

of Strange.

 

I am the trembling bones you lick clean

before you belch your bloody love ballads

into the thick evening air.

 

my only grave marker:

a wad of sweaty greenbacks

tucked into a funky pink g-string.

 

I was truly majestic

before I fell into cavernous love.

fell into hollowed out you.

fell into a barren forever.

[K.C. Zbryk]

This was a brilliant piece of writing that leads the reader down a very unusual path with suprises at every turn. the wordplay in this is shocking and each line has something that leaves the reader stunned. Just amazing

So intelligent, and well written. Great metaphors, and imagery. Please write more word art :D
