Tales of a Memory

Anime, narcissistic, loves to brag
	Pokingmyheadand
			Telling
				Her
					 Tales.

				      	 "Bam!
				"Ching!
			"Poof!	
		"Kabam!"

Igazedintoher
Large		glass		balls,
	Blueandblackinkfusing
Then				         separating
		   			  Into
				Two		   little
		   			 Rings.

Bangs
Her		brooms
Brash		yet		bashful
Polished
		Her pearl.

Her hair,
A scent of sage
Coiled and shifted
Into		catchy
	Styles
		Long
			Bobcut
				Wavy
			Short
		Afro
	Spiky

	"Dye?" I asked
Lookingather
	Blue hair.
	She shook
		Her head.
Ping!
	Blue
		To Red
	To Green
		To orange
	To blonde

"Wow!" I said.
	Touched her arm.
Skin?			No.
Fur.			Soft
Feline fur
	Forming
		From her
			Arms.
Striped
Yellow stripes and
Orange strands.

Brushed her ears
		Feline ears
Twitching as my finger
Whirled beside her
	Tickling my nerves.

Numbness			pricks.
I	looked		left	and
	Saw a skinny boa
Wrappingaroundmy
			Left wrist.
No.				Her tail
Her feline tail
Tugging
	Coiling
		Pressing
			Pressing
				Swaying
Left					Right.
	My hand, my shoulder
Followed.
	I press against her breasts
Pressed against
Her sand-colored face.

	Heat rose
AsifIwasin
	Hell
Sweat
An ocean of it
	Dripping
Onmyface
Stingingmyeyes
Bump-bumpbump-bumpbump-bumpbump-bump
	At once
		My mouth opened
Then "Sssssssh."
	Index and middle fingers
Slender as a straw
Crept		and		pressed
	To my		lips
Bringing in 
A sub-zero air conditioner.
	I stared
Into her eyes
Her eyes
	"No need to talk," she said,
Her snake-like tail
Coiling around	my toothpick body.

Myhead
Hurtsomuch
My		mind		fading
Breaking				apart.

"Are		you		okay?" Anime asks.
		Snappingmeback
To her world and
My memories.
