The Feminine Untamed
By Erica Bentley

Perhaps the red between my legs
Is not a punishment
Nor a consequence of
Owning my desires
It is instead evidence
A warning to those
Who dare think to
Take my desire
Partake in the flesh between my legs
And beg me for the taste
You are petrified
Of my gaping mouth
Get on your knees
And worship at the altar
Of my desire
Beg me for release
My forbidden fruit
Is a wound to those
Who know no better
Foolish are those
Who dare forsake my desire
Do not take
That which I do not give
If you dare punch a hole
Through my core
My teeth will come out
You are consumed
You the monster with a deformed rod
Me with teeth
And a grip with vengeance
That will break the rod that dare invade
I do not need you
To become whole
But you will beg me
To make you feel
Feel the paradise
Between my legs
Satisfy the need
That courses in you
Drown in me
