Her safe word is « harder ! »
but then
‘Heard that wrong,
‘didn’t hear that, no.
Did you say “there”, or
did you say “more » ?
Harder it’ll come :
Make me iller.
And she’s there,
I paid her, she’s there
Threatening like a prophet
Who’s not right yet.
Poet of the safe words,
Do tell the tale with them,
Please stop our sentences
Before we pass.
