I have a bikini in my pants pocket, it is a bulge. You get hard for me like all the time. My bulge
is fake but I steep in wetness often. Your bulge is your manhood. There is jealousy I have,
wanting your manhood. It has become connected to much imagery. I could give examples.

Duck sauce and wonton soup is exactly my pussy. In a good way, but also in a complex and
highly intellectual way. There is a small pamphlet filled with my juiciest secrets. It is gray and
buried in cement. That is a lie, but a beautiful image. I dance like a doll, only by force.

Embarrassment from wetting yourself, I clutch your tears, your innocence is resolute. There is
no barrier between myself and mothering. I suspect you do not get clammy, but have in the past.
Now you sweat with assurance. Mom is proud, and you are distant enough from her.
