Sticking her tongue out
in every photo,
she is madness
at the orgy eating doritos
referencing sex ed pie charts
and diaphragms in lubed
latex cherry hip boots
giggling maniacally
a pitbull puppy
with wolverine eyes
she wrecks and weakens
wears war paint
for her voodoo ancestors
demands worship
at the large altar of her buttocks
while reminding you
she holds multiple
advanced degrees
speaks 5 languages
fluently licking fluids from
your genitals as blood candles
glint off her wall of
collected weaponry
she orgasms her traumas
easily, neck arched back
screaming in tongues.
