Sex, Love and Writing
by MK Chavez
Refrain from using names.
It remains best to not tattoo
a lover’s name on your ass
and if you think
for a moment
that paper is any safer
remember how unlucky
we can be
it will be the poem
that gets published
the poem that brings you fame.
The permanence of ink
is a messy affair,
It’s best for things to remain
undedicated
your ass
and your declarations of love.
MK Chavez writes and performs poetry in the San Francisco
Bay Area. She has been published online and in print. Recent and upcoming
publications can be found in Spent Meat, the Red
Hills Review, and The Verse Marauder. For more
