​Frankenstein

Sightings of the other

Walking along a haunted river

You hid in plain sight

Learned my language

Even when the rest sneered at you in spite

I hold your disfigured hand

They sigh

She must be just as fucked inside

Your lips are charcoal

Cracked

Smokey

And taste unholy

A pendant surrounds my neck

Promising me to a sacred man

A celibate delicacy

A flower symbolic of diplomacy

But internally

Im permanently

Marked

With your divine Cautery

We make love in a death bed

You laugh

We thrive in Shelley and Percy etiquette

In the moonlight we wander

Those in the daylight wonder

But we are

Something

Like no other***
