What does 'lisp' mean in this sentence? Hi, What does 'lisp' mean in this sentence? It isn't the speech habit, isn't it? "you have awakened through fluttering lids to a rush and a gush and a toe-curling scalp- snapping jolt of feeling from an inside deeper than you knew you had, spasms of a deep sweet hurt, the streetlights through your window blinds cracking into sharp stars against the black bedroom ceiling, and on you a dense white jam that lisps between legs, trickles and sticks, cools on you, hardens and clears until there is nothing but gnarled knots of pale solid animal hair in the morning shower, and in the wet tangle a clean sweet smell you can't believe comes from anything you made inside you."
