an evening tea biscuit

by Ginette T Belle

oh darn, wasn't supposed to miss him
how piteous and restless I am
to cave, to want to cave
when not more than a second has passed
flaccid, languid, void of all reason
what devilish thoughts ride my waves
gut-renching, fanning my skin
spilling over with fervency
this is a blue screen
where pictures trick you into believing
they are real
where I thought I was "stand-alone" material
not needing a cushion to rest my head
haven't written for days
cause I barely know what to say
cause I barely know what's going on
in this fire engine body of mine...

You had some real good expressions and use of images here. I'm sure you'll figure out where the fire is and how to get to it!
