Appetite For Change

Her teeth chewed up other people's sandcastles.

each grain she spit upon got stuck in my throat,

I became the sliding, meaty opening she had imagined.

Before her I was shapeless putty, 

Invisible boring goo imitating gray snot.

She colored me roses made of red slick petals,

shaped me into her vocal chords,

choked me with her hunger.

This I will remain,

until her appetite changes.
