Cupid's Bicuspid

Does a question feel naked without a question mark
(And does that mean that we are finally talking about each other):

Using rope for ballast,
I try to turn from trigger shapes
to look in the black in your eye,
(--Hats on a hanger in a house--)
To look in the shiny black in your eye
For a reflection of I look in the black in your eye
So you’re me
So you want to bite my jawline
So my throat
So my wrists, ribs, and dappled ridges
So my shapes might trigger
-what? claws and tendons?

or maybe the chocolate peanut butter smell behind my ear
might trigger…
like a memory of honey hurts your fillings.
