"The Hole You're In"

-"Are you desirable?
Are you irresistible?
Maybe if you drank bourbon with me, it would help.
Maybe if you kissed me
and I could taste the sting in your mouth, it would help.

If you drank bourbon with me naked...
If you smelled of bourbon as you fucked me, it would help...
it would increase my esteem for you.
If you poured bourbon on to your naked body and said to me drink this...

If you spread your legs and had
bourbon dripping from your breasts and you vagina and said drink here,
then I could fall in love with you,
because then I would have a purpose: to clean you up,
and that would prove that I’m worth something.
Id lick you clean so you could go away and
fuck someone else."-
