The Red Daggers of Her Fingernails

I had a girlfriend once who called testicles crotch apples. She was uncouth and wanted to do disgusting things. I didn't like the way she'd tried to put mine in her mouth. It felt strange and maybe nervous every second that she was going to bite down. We got very close in college and I wanted her to move in with me. But in the night when she stayed in my bed, she insisted on sleeping naked,. rubbing herself on me in the sheets like some rutting feline. The term stuck with me for a long time.
