My Roommate's Slut
Dog-like howls
Narcissistic, I used to think
Unnaturally loud, or just
Unnatural
Epicurean harlot, you, if only
You could think
Or know the words
Here, I'll say them for you
No largess of flesh
Your body it seems
Along with your mind
Has wasted away
Spent itself on endless transactions
Between your gyrating pelvis
And anyone
Slavering, howling
Do your teeth gnash
Your mouth foam
Your moans pierce the night
Like the hundreds of pricks
Thrust into the sucking hole
You equate with your soul
Uninspired
Panting and shrieking
Hollow expirations from your mouth
The world could breathe inside you
Like wind through an empty corridor
Stirring only what's left inside you
Only dust
Assuage your sterility
By rubbing the scratch
Swallowing with your gaping vacuity
Something to fill the void
Yet not fulfilled by one small act
Of his kindness
Unnoticed
Did you hear him
Barely audibly he moaned
Lent his voice to your lonely howls
Spent his semen, too
To dry inside you and add
To the dust your wretched vacuity
Aging though it is
Still manages to suck in
