VIRGIN TERRITORY<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bodyworker.
Your body, not mine.
My body\u2019s slotted
into the designated white room,
your chosen present,
gift-wrapped
with the glossy illusion of consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My mind is aswarm
with instructions
it cannot comprehend.
My mind cannot be present.
I must disassociate
as I apply pressure,
knead tissue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anxious supplicant of flesh,
my strong, delicate hands\u2014
hot, smooth stones
I weigh like options\u2014
can only distract you
from the grim futility
of your quest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harem seeker,
curator of a cornucopia
of delights,
practiced unmaker of girls
you render nameless,
conceal in your private zoo
for a few hundred dollars.

Host with the most dirt
hopes our nubile flesh
will replenish his rotting mass,
return the virtue he squandered,
restore the purity he demands
by extracting ours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I work hard to indulge,
to feed your hunger
for virgin territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Neither daughter nor lover nor sister\u2014
not even your possession\u2014
I am your altar,
your instrument,
burst and conveniently hushed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Insatiate.
Endless rub downs
cannot soothe that muscle,
relieve that itch,
curb that craving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hey Goliath\u2014
what bible story
do you tell yourself at night?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
