define comfort

define comfort he says to her
draping a velvet leg over her shoulder
five legs keeping him there

and he could give a shit
about his lanky limb
she can have it he thinks

in the off event that it breaks off
and she weilds it as a weapon.
his shiny wings chirping at just the right frequency

and

one

two

presto



he is dreaming and she is lulled from brightlights
big city jive talkin slick and slims
to his private oasis
but a dream it is and a cavernous dining hall
becomes his proving ground
he has to make this thing sing
split her back and make the wings myself if i have to.

no problem he thinks and dreams



could it be the other way he imagined?
his wings tied and brittle.
our hero boards the fastest jet imaginable. cocks his hat.
check his rear view.
and sits there for ever and forever and ever.
