Deadhorse

Darling,
We beat this like a dead horse.
Stand in front of bullets to make
the same point.

All these "I won't give you
this if you don't give that to me."

Skip it like a record, jump ahead
till our heads sway to a new,
exciting thing.

This isn't olympics,
events happening for your benefit.
My words don't mean much,
Unless you take them out of me
for a touch.

Won't you give me satisfaction?
Or shall I feed you first?
