WHAT YOU ASKED FOR.

By Lynsey Balloch

ree

You like my hair.

I hope you drown in it.

Hold it. Smell it. Caress it. Eat it.

Tendrils smouldering down your throat.

Strangle and squeeze your insides until they combust –

In flames.

Blood, fire and guts.

Wipes out the waste –

Never fear darling.

Fire grows from rusty, rooted nests.
