It tickles when you pick me up
Throw me on your comforter
Soft whipped cream, pollen tassels
Golden is our play
In Duckie pajamas, running amuck
I’m waiting for your swift return
And though I’m lost in stupor
I smell the Spice just fine

Goodness, spikes lodged in your head
Hedgehog Darling, do I feel?
Prying Prudence softly with a paring knife in time
Wakened delay, dormant right
Psyche to disperse
Dog tags fresh with names n’ religion
I shall not want
For now

The flash of a cam and a silver-pierced smile
Scoliosis, wet with you
Pulling my hair like a knob to good fortune
Strands loose and sore; it’s me yours will be
My veins, your strings, thin and taut
Pallid stripes abound my skin
Chicken plucked, here I lie
Perfumed with the musk of your duct tape

Slowly, soft, head sinks back
Debutante ball in linen’s glee
The desperate need to be so plucked
Fulfilled, good
For now

Miles2go505: In the poem you put the words in an interesting way that makes people think instead of making it it straight forward it's really creative and the message goes out very effectively.

QhBaRrElChIc: Oh, I like this one a lot! Very catchy and witty of course...With a touch of guilt or heartache...At least that's what I got out of it. Very nice, great job!
