Stranger Luck and Other Oddities

Before Oblivion

· Stranger Luck

We sat on the couch
And watched the world burn
Live and online.
You asked me to turn it off,
And then started to undress
I was confused,
But you kissed me,
Told me to shut up
And please just fuck you.
You wanted to feel something
More than sorrow and rage.
So I did.
We moved slow and gentle
Trying to pretend the world
Outside wasn’t there.
We kissed, and I tasted your tears.
You wept as you rode me
Seeking some climax,
In these moments, before oblivion.
