Poetry / plundered

take a ride
with you
cross town.
through the hills
the brush comes down
to kiss the road.
watch as you grip the wheel
tight, diamond shining
in the dashboard light.
go faster,
excite me sure,
were far from home
but right where were
supposed to roam.
right around
three, the rope begins
to lacerate.
the moon dips behind a hill somewhere
as i begin to bleed.
go faster.
youve realigned
all ive held dear
youve made love the heart of my fear.
