I’ve got my test, you can drink me, but don’t make me bitter. Don’t leave right after. I should be your heroin hit. These little claws should be your tether. Bring it on lovely, you’ll be my new toy. Be made of stone so I will not break you. Be made of silk so you are smooth. Be made of pliable substance, of life. It must have a heart that’s beating. It must know more than I. Taste this my lovely, let it fill your mouth. I’ve seen the girls, they don’t move like me. I could skin you partially with enough left over to lick. Dance awhile. Stay and I’ll talk like you. It’s been so long since I’ve tasted your tongue. Trace the teeth my love, send me the imprint in a piece of flesh. I stay waiting. It’s been so long since that little death. So long since I heard your sounds. Call to me, to the world. Tear into this chest, take my air, take and remove. Falling off the edge I’ll take you with me. The wind will whip. Snap.

You can drink me, they came back negative.
