Yum

We're not so different, you and I
Thirty-three vertebrae down the spine
Yet your décolletage is soft
Far more delicate than mine
Let your calmness turn to angst
Clammy skin adds salt to taste
Streams of tears enhance the flavor
All of which I need to baste
Screech and cry
Shake in fear
Just on the brink of a coma
Beg and writhe
Charred and seared
I'm enticed by your aroma
Yum
