I Don't Know Your Name (2023)  (ASR) Beauty and sloven, blue collar beast she holds dominion over, drawn to her indifference. #2055123 by He’s Brian K Compton

Original:

I Don’t Know Your Name

Heels clomp decisively
echo in liquid air
Eminent vanilla
brushes past flared nostrils
Penetrating brown eyes
masked by miniature frames
defeat the sloven shapes.
Cast a gaze over this loathsome beast
with your amber warmth
Let fire breathing, sun glaring, stinging words
incinerate me to the ground
my pooled ashes lingering
as you walk over me again and again.
