Shell

Shell  
once upon a time
he came across a
connect the dot body

a frame made entirely
from intersecting kisses
that cobwebs had
licked away

once upon a time
she was a shell
for you to fill in
but you're an artist
whose paintbrush has
dried out

yet there were times
when you'd spider
crawl in adjacent
lines

starting at an ankle
and ending at her
cold temple

one image done
by talent's hand
the other begun
with your tongue

but this time
in one slow
deliberate
curve up from
a sole of a foot

your tongue a rasp
on a twin ankle
filling the girl in

kiss-
licking
rest stops
on the way
calve to freckle
and thigh to cheek

once upon a time
maybe he could
imagine the
beauty in a
carcass

a hull
of an image
he'd paint
but forget
