Skeleton

If there were a fire

Can we scratch beneath this?

 

My eyes have been burning

The lover is an arsonist

Oil you up and light your fire

Crack a match, scar your skin

 

(all fun and games)

 

Smoke in the summer

Smoke in the night

 

Look into the magnifying glass

 

Scorched meat

Flesh clears for bone

Skeleton in my summer

Skeleton in my night

Skeleton in my bed

With holes for eyes.
