| I want to be reincarnated as your jeans |
| by Shane Allison |
| Torn and discolored.
My arms will play as yr pant leg. The very mouth I used to suck cock with will come as the copper zipper. My pubes are the very threads that make up the inseam that cuts between yr inner thigh. I can feel the joy in being a favorite pair of your jeans. Especially in public bathrooms where I'm pulled down relentlessly to those creamy ankles. The belt hangs loose and limp on floors that look like they haven't been mopped for months. I would fit perfectly at the butt, and around yr 32 inch waist directly below stomach, chest and a land of freckles. And when you're done pulling me from each lovely leg before a hot shower, I shall hang pressed on a wire hanger like I was never worn. |
