Like a Man

By Kristof Gregor

Make me feel a Man 

   Uncouth passion

   Desired bare

Take me

   Like a Christian invites sin

   Onomantic game 

By the hand

   In quiet fashion 

   Skin so lush and thin

To your bed

   The tame sea of petals 

   My alms

Have me take you

   In vain 

   Blindfold you and tie your arms

Clock the hours behind your back

   Like you trust me

   A Vampyr at your neck

But before…

   Prey tell,

   Were my teeth first, or the name?
