Dreaming Affairs

A Poem by Amorette Duvannes
"

I know more than to suppose I'm hurting anyone. We're using each other for the status, of course. I've never had anyone love longer than a slap, to know if I could love longer than a slap.

"
Dainty lover, white as the grave-dancer
Faceless, your face. Limbless, your arms.
This heart. This heart. This heart.

I fell down the rabbit-hole an hour in,
Swallowed whole in the forest 3 days later,
A week on, I am 100-years asleep, 
Waiting on your non-hands. Your eyeless sockets.

I say it because it's real. Or rather, it's really what I feel.
I am miserable with your dream in my head,
It hasn't stopped turning you over since your first joke,
You remain still, in some bed, far from here -

Or maybe you toss. Turn. Like I do. Like I wanted
For you. It was a prick, a little thing, a mere flicker,
That caned the flesh until it was barking red.

You could have your knuckles twisted in the panties
Of one girl a minute, and you would still be one of my line-up.
You are the thirty-third dream I've had this year,
It's January 28th. I feel you whimpering away from me.

You will die eventually, die from me.
It won't mean much, but at least you will take,
From me, the time I waste. I have far too much of
The damned stuff. Quick, like light, dare to race away from
My nothing face.
