Some words to dream by...
In the dark
Steal bars, a hinged door, cold metal.
You run your hand over the side of the cage, feeling a tiny thrill.
This cage belongs to you and you belong to her.
You hear her boots on the floor, you pull your hand back and lower your chin to the floor.
You can just turn your head and see the toe of her boot. You want to smile but you stay very still till her boot nudges you. You raise up your head and you look up at her. She loves it when you look up at her like that. You've learned how to please her in so many ways.
She's not smiling right now, you can see she is in one of those frustrated moods. She gets like that, wrapped up and hard to reach. You wait to see what she will ask of you, demand of you, want from you.
