Analysis of Roadkill
Daniel Millard 1976 (Medford, OR)
Your love so
Relentless so
Strong
My desire like
Bitter poison
In my veins
Together we found
My femininity
Love and desire
Are everything
They dance
In unison
My heart twisted
Desperate - confusion
Chokes me
Love is like
Roadkill
On a very hot day
