catfight
i'll bow my head, low to the ground in reverence so your claws can pass freely above.
when my nose is brushing the floor i can wipe my face clean, reset it and free it of fear n love.
i am impassive.
i will remain so.
kiss me sweet n i'll close my eyes n draw you closer, we'll both ignore how my claws dig into the meat of your chest.
we bite the hand that feeds us n when we taste blood we kiss it, red staining our teeth n tongue n gums. viscera caught between canines.
we are forfeit to each other
