Excerpts from Codify by Irene Koronas

25

upstairs paint leaks

by gash

neck and rape

soft incest roses

pour arsenic  

in porcelain

finger frag  

rub testis

to spurt

2

clasp the pink

vagine

consider leisure

a gossamer

with a comb

part semen

108

leather strap hum

shut up cock

booty polite

her wilt tongue

hairspray pricked

by bitten flesh

8

no slice in hot grease

links ankle

black and white spank

firm breasts

rip and forget

1

moored in

hike up your spike

you nasty

whore master

who rebels

in my mouth
