Prisoner

Prisoner: I’ve trapped you
Inside of a little
White web of words
That I have spent
Hours delicately
Spinning for this
Intimate engagement.

Don’t struggle, (she said) it will
All be over
In a moment
And it hurts much less
If you just let it happen.

There now, don’t
You feel silly?
Bet you could barely
Feel my fangs
As I (softly) sucked
Your essence out
Of you and into
This poem.
