Sacrificial Nibble

by Scott Thomas Outlar / October 18th, 2020

The frequency is static behind dormant eyes
pulsing sideways left to right

I want to lick its fear from your forehead
and spit shine twice despite the plague

Jesus never said it was wrong to judge
just that you’d better be
well prepared to receive
all the flak that fires
back in kind

kiss the spot that aches the most
and sharpen your tongue for the lashing

save your teeth for new hungers
