he tastes like original sin, that first burn of alcohol down your throat. he touches you like dawn touches the ground, sweetly and slowly, but there's something too sharp there, something in his eyes and the way he sounds like guilt, maybe like that time when you covered your ears because the world was too loud. you're wearing red lipstick that's a shade too red but that doesn't matter, because the apple doesn't ever fall too far, does it, and he is always where you belong. you don't want to think about his liliths and their fig leaves, and eve has been too overrated a role for you to play. he tastes like god struck him down and lucifer embraced him in fear, something too holy and acrid for demons and angels. you'll drink his wine any day, you'll take his bread, you are too holy to resist the sound of crucifixes and sermons to an unhearing ear, and god knows he will taint you.

Marriage Equality
I just want you to imagine with me for a moment.
Imagine you've found a person that completes you, that makes you feel happiness that you never thought possible.
They make you laugh.
They wipe away your tears.
You melt in their embrace.
Their kisses leave you breathless.
Their body, mind and soul, fit yours in what can only be described as perfection. To say you're in love with this person, is almost an understatement. You adore them. Everything they are, and everything they do.
Finally, the time in your lives comes when you want to be bonded together in a meaningful, significant way. You want to get married.
Now imagine, that you enc

Tight jeans and Theatrical boys
I pull up in his dad's driveway
and the boy sitting on the stoop looks like
Saint Exupery's treasured little prince.
When he climbs inside my used Sentra,
I tell him about this quirky realization.
"You're both so cute and opinionated."
He grins and replies that it's his favorite book
to read when life is particularly rough.
Cappuccino sips and playful shoves
convert the evening into something
brilliantly unstable and devastatingly 'teenager'.
I want to kiss him violently, so we can stop this
annoying game of cat and mouse.
But instead, we discuss music
and other topics that make me feel childish.
He asks where I would go if I could

The Taste of You
I want to wake up next to you
and curl my naked arms
around your belly
and arch my back in a morning stretch
and yawn into your hair.
I want to press my toes into your calf
and kiss your shoulder
and the back of your neck
and tickle down your spine
with spindly fingers
and test the echo of your ribcage
with my cheek pressed to your chest
and swallow you in dainty morsels
until your heartbeat is my own.

it's been a while since i've submitted anything, and i keep having religion soak into everything. blame it on the supernatural. it's fabulous, but you then start to get hooked on random parts of various religions. this is sort of based off of a character that's inspired by another character, and then, y'know, the bible.
as far as messages and symbols, etc etc etc, go, i'd say something about addictive personalities, enablers, beliefs... go with the flow, ladies.

I really loved the content in this piece. The symbolism is spot on and the message is abstract, but very strong. I have to say, though, reading through- I was snagged a bit on punctuation.
There are certain places where I would change commas to periods, and, if you were even open to it, I would simply indent lines. For phrasing, you want to have consistencies in the reasons you use various punctuations.
What I might do:
"something too sharp there;"
"he sounds like guilt
maybe like that time when you"
"too far (does it) and he is"
"you to play.
he tastes like god"
"you'll take his bread,
you are too holy"
"unhearing ear- and god knows"
(Take this all with a grain of salt.)
I also might change "sweetly and slowly" to "sweet and slow" to maintain a constant tone.
I hope this helps (:
