11. The Right Time of the Month

I am bleeding
But you are not
Yet a red tattoo
Stains your chest,
Like a dragon
Escaping from your heart.

I feel no pain
There is not cut,
No wound, no injury.
Just the wrong
Time of the month,
But hey, no worries.

Dried blood cakes
Your fingers like
A pair of
Rubber gloves,
Or a gardener’s
Muddy fingers.

Your saliva has the
Taste of my blood
As you kiss me.
Like a vampire
You sucked me dry
Your lips are red.

The right time
Of the month
It must have
Been for me.
You made me come
Flooding more blood.
