She eats me alive easily

Could you live with a chasm in plain sight alone? What would fill the void? Who would churn and chew my heart, my eyes, my bones? Contort the gymnast of my soul? Fill the midnight onwe with a hauntedge vadaviv one only I perceive selfishly engulf me fully in the tunneling come down, come down, she says come in to play

Sharing something different…a darker feisty piece penned during a self imposed writing fast… it lasted but hours, she eats me alive easily

It's hot. D***. Hot. Effing d***. Kind of speechless, I'd say. The fasting did good. The food tastes so delicious after a fast, doesn't it? It's wow

It's. Do you know what I was? I had saved this in my drafts and kept going to post it and then deciding against it, thinking, oh, no, it's too dark, it's too dark. Thank God. You like it? Yeah. I don't know what happened. Literally, I'd gone through a spell of writing loads. And then I said, it's taking up too much of my time. It's like a drug I need to detox from poetry

You. Hi, Adenike. Yeah, I just want to echo Laura's great response. It definitely deserves all those exploits which were blurred out a little bit or blocked out here on Swell, which is fun. But yeah. Gosh, it's such a great example, yet again, of your incredible style. Like, it's so visceral and immediate and sensual and sexual and gosh, yeah, it's wonderful. It's absolutely wonderful
