3 - "You lead a pod of sharks"

 You lead a pod of sharks
With those flashing scythes,
Your eyebrows tipped with soot
And smeared from chopping up hearts.

You stepped inside me, and you
threw a mesh of rusted rootwork in me.
This net is voracious, it bides its time
before it commences to dominate.

Salt of my heart, whose sunny disposition
Sprouted a sunflower
from the yellow of your eye:

a mosquito bite I must keep scratching,
a fish trapped inside a bottle,
a hammer fed up with its anvil.
