poem 014: show me nothing but surrender (horses part one)

patti smith arthur rimbaud
vulgar notions stuck in my throat
bony moronie blood ceremony
set fire to the manual
build a pyre with our notes

pedal to the metal
hot white horsepower night
pin me against your serpentine ropes
beguile me with your hurricane eyes
i won’t look away won’t put up a fight

grind the clutch
clutch my back
dig your nails deep never look back
criminally insane highway highspeed
obsidian reptilian obscene desert dreams
