Shark!

Matt Counte

    I stick to the cold, emotionless waters because that’s where I feed.
I hunt at night on the streets, in the clubs, and in the houses of others.
The dancing, substances, and swirling lights propel me onward.
My food is soft, warm, and affectionate till I render it but a carcass.
The first pass is a playful inspection of my prey’s capabilities.
On my second pass, I unleash my bite on her shoulders of skin and
mammary
till the final penetration.
Then there is only euphoria like a warm, lightless corridor in the ocean.
I pass through it not quite appreciating it, till again the currents fight for control over me.
These meals are but temporary respites from the disease of my nature.
The hunger never subsides or diminishes.
I must keep going or I’ll die.
