lapsus calamiyou're smooth, you know
all soft skin and and long fingers,
cupping my cranium and sliding through
the tendrils of my hair
everything about you screams dangerous,
the way your smile starts--
languid and lazy because
your lips speak in secrets

Think of Your Sins Los Angeles was a peculiar place. It was peculiar because you could neither say it was beautiful or ugly. But, you had to admit it was both. You could come here and find the kind of scum that made a planet as beautiful as Earth ugly. I often wondered how evil something so sentient needed to be in order to do this.
Turn your head and there was a two hour conversation about religion at the bus stop or a real girl made from the ground up that you thought only existed in cold weather cities. Okay.
