#12 - he can't stop thinking about it by Linda Fullerhe can’t stop thinking about it
as he works the clasp of the thin gold chain
how much pressure would it take
he strokes her throat with his fingertips
feels her blood pulse beneath the skin
hears her breath hitch and shudder
feels her blood pulse beneath the skin
he strokes her throat with his fingertips
how much pressure would it take
as he works the clasp of the thin gold chain
he can’t stop thinking about it

Posted by Ken Harnisch on 01/13/11 at 01:34 PM Chilling..like an icy wind that blows through the mind with the most evil thought before something - morality, ethics, fear - squelches it...till next time. Thoughtful write, Linda. Good luck with the next 353. |
