this is stage violence. too pretty, do you see? this bruise. blooming over my jaw like a challenge. it looks so soft, taunts your tenderness. be hard. bite me.
cut: a contradiction. pain on pain. it makes no sense.
should it? take two, i say. mine and yours. the pain you keep behind the curtain, pull it up into a bruise. pull it out into a wound. further, make it mine.
one hit: that's fine.
