youre a good little girl,

he types.

youre submissive arent you, 

he moans, over text.

he expects a beguiled,

I AM! I AM! I AM!

charcoal toothpaste. 
teeth whitening strips. 
water on a bathroom floor muddied with muttered songs. 
cans of who and why on a windowsill. 
forehead sweat. made to stick fringes.
quick to anger. founded in a parent not so unlike. 
jerking awake. jolting asleep. comfort nul.

evil feelings when green and yellow lie dormant. 
stuttered uttered eye contac...
