PUSSY

Beautifully folded salmon sweater

Cashmere sleeves and slouching turtleneck

I want to slide inside

and feel the hairs on my arms

stand on end

Silver threads and white cotton

spilling from the seams

Japanese pink ginger

toffee and coffee taffy

Velveteen ear of a baby deer

Wrap around me like a ball python

swallow me whole

like a blind baby mouse

cinnamon in the swings

sour peach candy rings

Sweet surprise

She’s open wide.

I follow like a moth to the bulb to fry.
