girl-in-box

I know you are sated
the switch is flipped
the power off
but not for me.

Bullets in the chamber
breathlessly loaded
spent in a moment
but not in me.

The savage hands
like forked tongues
leave their marks
but not on me.

Stuttered obscenities
skipped across glass
spoken under skin
but not to me.
