The taste of death

I have licked tongue in lust

I have clothed a body in the height of emotion

I have touched the third leg of him to arouse emotion

I unveiled my two upper balls to gain attention

I went to the extreme to make him mine

I know the taste of it

I know the colour of it

Cos I have felt the heat of it

I have been in it

And yes,

I will not deny it

It is a thirst I dare not quench

It is a stream I dare not dry

For  it brought out the animal in me

First time I felt pain when my silk was torn

Second time I felt pleasure cos my hole has been widened

To be keen

It refreshes my skin

For  it was skin to skin

We had it at the peak of emotion

Yes, we had it on the floor

We were in a rush

Couldn’t lock the door

Right on the floor,

We clothed each other with flesh

We lost the memory of warnings

And wrote the story of feelings

Feelings that passes like season

Oh! We lost our health to lust

We buried our future in the pleasure of it

We had the taste of it

We naked ourselves to its pleasure

Unknown to us that it’s the closure of our future

We aided ourselves to get AIDS

If, if and if only

If only the third leg was coated

If only the private hole was rapped

Maybe I wouldn’t be down with AIDS

But until I got it I never knew

If you are allergic to abstinence

Then take condom and sieve it

Sieve it before you taste it

Rap it

Coat it

Save a life, save your future

Cos AIDS is real, as real as death

AIDS is real, protect yourself.
