The Stripper
nude is to submission
as dollar is to prayer flag
deprived is to engorged
as ritual is to tenderness
belly is to stone
as salve is to altar
tit is to reward
as desire is to humiliation
display is to control
as witness is to chaos
alone is to proximity
as skin is to loneliness
as dollar is to prayer flag
deprived is to engorged
as ritual is to tenderness
belly is to stone
as salve is to altar
tit is to reward
as desire is to humiliation
display is to control
as witness is to chaos
alone is to proximity
as skin is to loneliness
