swollen at the hips wrapping around your ribs

inside your skin on its surface

oozing hot lava cake in the sun

beneath fingernails skin throbbing

your knuckles pressed into granite

his into your cheek

painted debit card on your lips

his dollars nestled in your throat

a wad rolling across your palate

gathering interest growing hitching in your chest

almost melting in your stomach

you scream to release it
