“Monster” is the word from Siew Li and this is what I came up with:
In this moment
This encounter
one, or one of many
by chance, or by design
My face could
smile
laugh
frown
You couldn’t guess
My mind wants
to hold you
to fuck you
to watch you choke in my grasp
I push you away
Fearing you will see this monster
Shielding you from my monster
Choosing alone
Please turn
Please make a guess
Please take a chance
On this Monster
Who yearns to
be with you
be warm
be touched
That’s a lot of words.
