Peaking Out My Panties – A Poem

Words: Faith Thurnwald
Art: Kat Hannavy

I’m somewhere between midnight and nightmare,

Woman of your dreams

Or

Devil and despair.

Always completely aware,

Of the desire

That

Lives

Down

There…

Beware!

Impatient and impervious and nevertheless

Always

Wet,

And willing? Well; yes!

Willing you to leave or love me.

Your unwilling witness to this mess.

Mess of dreams, mess of hair – amounting to a nightmare,

But I warned you; beware!

‘Cause,

At midnight I’m always your nightmare.

Mare of that little town there,

Living on inside your head,

But baby, never your bed.
