dizzypurr:

“Sunshine shining shine shine all in my bones.”

i beg to show 
you my teeth,
each cavity,
this sweet and that sweet.
birthdays, halloweens,
wedding tin can candy holder.
dove feathers, grains of rice.
i smile big, swallow whole.
sink my teeth into 
a four am moon, suck
up it’s juices 
and spirits. 
zero bones at midnight,
i may be ugly
but i shine— 
my spine is a string
of lights. 
luminary banshee, 
i talk in tongues
‘cause i’ve eaten
so many.
