I assume the first two lines are to set up a contrast of her new life and the carnal(is that the right word) imagery. I like the imagery. It is rough and effective. Slurp definitely sticks out badly. I wish the contrast was more developed. Also wish there was an ending. I felt like I was hanging on and a little deprived. Why is the narrator reminiscing now? How is it affecting the narrator?
