Choking tale

Life before witching took place …

… when breathing into a chest
covered in fabric
and held back by ribbons
to never let go.

… when a tongue was tasting
what teeth were chewing
for a pit
fearing to be full.

… when eyes saw
whatever was expected
only to ignore the shadow
rushing in the corner.

… someone takes off the fabric
and loosens the ribbons
for the chest to inhale
their taste on that tongue
and lips to be bitten
with a look into eyes
to set a world on fire?

„Oh boy“, my witch giggled. „Who but who the hell would cut us loose like this?“
„Who the hell is allowed to choke us like this?“
