a toast

tis truly beautiful
to be all tied up and locked down
cuffed to the ever seductive bed of another copyright infringement
who was just waiting for this moment all along
i've got somewhere i have to be wandering to
quickly
so, if you could please just slow down the bobbing of your head
just a little
i could maybe grab a firm hold of your hairpin
and work some magic on these locks
that's not your pace though
a little too slow and tangible i guess
a little too honest
my reflexes are quite dangerous
and your armor is a little too revealing to be practical
maybe i have dropped my sword a few miles back
maybe you kicked it aside and flashed a few promises to distract me
it doesn't matter
you'd rather accept the pierce of my tongue
and know that blood drawn would flow down my throat
you'd enjoy that sick sound
you'd enjoy "i'm sorry"
