is everything a baited hook?

Somebody's got a new muuuse~.

lol late-night poetry.

swan song

I was going to puncture you
with snakebite precision,
the almond bitter
beneath your tongue.
I was going to point my toes
and become your Odile--
baby, I'm the usurper.

Lay me down, old Tarot devil
with my wafer-thin chains.
I have no shyness; you delineated me.
Now I take the lessons of tax-men and entropy:
bide, and bide, and bide.
