wanna make out in a great white
shark screaming towards infinity and run
me over his seven sets of teeth back
and forth just grate my legs into
a pile of pink ribbons you
braid into a lasso i told you to truss me
a 10-pound bird resting on the tip of his
tongue the length and width of my great-
grandmother’s grave but you wanted this
to last you wanted to make me a choker
of a mother of pearl because
you are the cowboy from my dreams
