safe words
Cristine Brache
i’d like to hear some safe words
satin blouse, string of pearls, neck brace
make more secure sounds, say a prayer, and really care
tell me to go stand in the corner
play the recorded sound of a dog panting from the beginning of july till the
end of august
between each dog’s pant i want to say
i am a beautiful piece of property
erect and etched in stone
tfw you can’t wear chanel to your own systematic humiliation
dramatization, waterbed city
sappho’s expression while you klonopin
you can cry as much as you want
or write down the dates you’ve felt scared
like a woman of good pedigree
or latinas in the dark
