Who Swallowed Who


The morning you ate me alive
I, in turn, devoured your mouth,
staring hard and still your eyes,
inky black slits at near dawn,
resembling sea slugs or leaches,
which sucked me to their depths
as I swam the length of your spine,
diving deep into your skull matter.

Very powerful insights into your psyche. And yes the archetypes are vibrant. I lilke how you write and express yourself. There is something about your writing that sounds eternal and oval.
Cheers
