Bible

by Yakari Gabriel   Aug 6, 2016


You're one of those
really good men
who just happen to make
really terrible lovers
those women pray for,
only to run away when
they get them
you're cold.

you burn like ice does-
spend so much time
between the legs of women
your mouth forgot how to say
thank you, how to honor
you kiss and forget
that some women,
aren't just women
but bible verses
on two feet

    Yakari, I've said it before and I'll say it again and again, i always look forward when I see your name pop up on my news feed thing that you've posted another piece because your pieces are always raw, unique and definitely gets the reader thinking. I often wonder if your pieces are literal or not (as I know some are 'people watching' pieces and other most likely are.)
    Anyway, to this piece it's another one of your unique styled pieces that fits perfectly together in every way and reads so smooth. My only problem was that it was just like bang, bang, bang then over (in a good way) so had to read it thrice lol and each time I found something else I liked about it which is unusual with things I read.

    Take care, Em
