Scary baby likes to whittle, whittle away.
At my sex.
At my hair.
I burn bright with hate but scoop
the earth into his mouth and let him suck anyway.
Madness in my brain like fat delicious worms. 

Scary baby bites my sloppy fingers, hard,
Until the bones break and I am bleeding
Like a pinched cherry.
I suck my tongue and scream and cry
Until I am giggling and dancing.
Blood-letting. 

Until my head falls off,
Leaving thousands of rotting petals all over his garden.
I keep flooding like this … silly scary baby
Makes me hysterical.
I hate his dumb baby brain but I love
How he dribbles drops of sweet water down my neck. 

A lesson in art and annihilation.
