I remember what his own ruined flesh felt like on mine, the texture of his imperfections rubbing against my body, the taste of him. I remember the sensitivity of new scar tissue, like a fresh branding – burning hot pain as new, tight skin stretched almost to breaking point.I remember the musk that rose from his skin and inflamed me. And the smell of his hair – like cars and apples – and the permanent line of black motor oil under his fingernails. I close my eyes and I think of those dirty hands as they pawed me, scratched my delicate skin. I can still feel each cut and nick and callus that graced his brutal hands, hands so dirty they made my skin smell like an engine…From ‘Changed Flesh : Violetta & the Magdalens’She waited for him, dressed in shadows and blending in with the city night; only the alabaster glow of her skin in the darkness gave her away.Each moment that passed felt like an eternity.Patience is a virtue.She waited.Anticipatory adrenalin rushed through her; her entire body quivered and her breath quickened in her throat, came out in short bursts like fuck-gasps, visible in the freezing air.Then she saw him, strutting past the open window, naked and proud. Even from this distance she could see his cock standing to attention.Her heart lurched in her chest and her gut flipped over twice. She almost whimpered but dug her long black nails into the soft flesh of her palms diverting her concentration from her nervousness and excitement.She’d been waiting here for hours and her feet and legs were numb, felt almost rooted to the dirty street beneath them. It felt like she had been waiting there forever. And she would have waited that long for him. She would have waited for an eternity. She would have waited until the end of time.She listened to the sounds of sex that filtered down from the bedroom window, one floor up, across the narrow street. She listened to the words that spilled from his passion-filled mouth and out into the night.She listened to all the noises of pleasure and pain and the cries of that which lay somewhere between the two. She watched violent silhouettes battle each other, throw themselves against the pallid walls in the candlelight.From ‘Surgical Messiah’She stares at her own flawed perfection and smiles, like a mother’s smile at her new born, a labor of love smile, a smile born of pain and suffering and endurance.Her scars are beautiful, each as unique as a snowflake and just as pure. The raised patterns are often-traveled paths back to the memories which created them.Their texture beneath her fingers makes her forget for a while why they came to be here, all over her, spanning most of the surface of her skin, and she sees them not for what they are, but what they represent to her now - a new life, new beginnings, new horizons.New scars - pink and tight and shiny; she stretches the new skin between two fingers, pulling the newly-formed flesh in opposite directions. The exquisite raw sting makes her mouth water, sparkling saliva giving her lips a succulent sheen. Her naked skin feels alive and anticipation buzzes over her, around her, inside her, like electricity…
