We were
mutant,
electric, and had
four arms, four
legs, pushing
each other, coming
back together. Every chance
I got close, the
smell brought
me closer. The
smell of deodorant
and the lotion
you had
on gave my
hands a
grasp of
your body. Hands
flowing around us.

Ooh, "hands flowing around us", imagine. I think about the scene in the movie Labyrinth when the main character falls down a well and there are millions of hands helping her down. The hands even come together to form faces and they speak to her.
ReplyDeleteI love the use of mutant and electric with in the same stanza, mutant being grotesque and un-likeable but electric to be dazzling and magnificent.
ReplyDeleteIt works wonderfully, its dark and brilliant. Keep it going, the drama is unbeatable.
