My eyes may feast on you aplenty,  
but let my chipped canines crunch  
down on the marrow that constitutes  
your collarbones.

Let me court the cicada inked  
on your thigh to crawl down  
my throat and embed itself  
to multiply.

Let me tuck an eyelash –  
or antenna –  
in between my gums  
like a delicate kernel  
for later.

It can be something small,  
some cell of yours,  
just as long as I  
can swallow you  
whole.
