Rule one: you can’t be single — singles get
the whole world handed to them — they have rules,

rules to break — I adore lovers with debt,
lovers who missed out. Let grief be what fuels

your lust. Let taboo be what ties you up
and splays you out. No hiding from your lust

just yet. Give me a wanna-be trollop,
a day-dreaming dirty grrl. She-who-must-

thrust-her-hips-while-her-children-are-sleeping.
Fluids and sweat gleam … what new debauching

will we dream up tonight? We both hunger
after something new, my married lover.

I have never been told that I’m a whore.
You’ve never begged for mercy and for more.
