to make sure I am loved,
he wants to watch someone else do it

supervise,
directing another man to my attention


my love will attend to me also

with praise:
“good girl”
“you are so pretty for him”

but he’ll say it for //me//

because I love it

really,
he is obedient to my needs
here in this bed
with this man

he will not attend to //me// with direction or instruction


I am in charge
I am kept safe here


I’ll want to perform for my love
but he will make sure I don’t need to

even that I can’t

I won’t be...
