Lolita

I.  Lolita Transient Overnight takes on new meaning when the sun never sets and will never rise. This time i didn’t bring words, i brought lines. And Esmeralda danced circles around my eyes. You gypsy vixen You. Leading me confused,                   with knees low and back hunched,                                     into a labyrinth of solitude. Embarrassed of what exactly? i’ve barred scars more deep than scars like profound pools of black sticky tar that almost suffocates with its gluttony and still You wouldn’t look away. And now i pay a price as images intertwine                            creating zebra patterned designs                                              on the alcoves of my mind.          Black, White They contrast in spite of the connection.          and I wear this contrast like an emblem,                   hanging from my throat,                            heavy on my heart.                                     yet with the delicate touch of some                                              slippery silvery chain…                                                       It almost rids me of the pain. Back turned or give me the front, i still want either way. A petrifying carnival of desire, making my eyes tire of this display and my lips itching to play, a lilac purple tongue, and bronze arms on the way. You feign revolution by shutting the door in my face. A shuddering sigh and flutter of a heart,                            as caged ribs start to part,                                    liberated room for more, i’ve become an emotional whore, lips wet with anticipation, pulsating with a passion, that You defined as infatuation. And that i just couldn’t define. -or rather- defined as a transition in time. Lolita Transients would abstractive-ly be the best,          but the abstract, once put to the test, floats past concrete lines, and creates a world of its own where, even as a stranger,                   i feel right at home.                                     Lioness of the abstract dome. Razor sharp You         sliced a tingling into the souls of my feet,         and week after week i did nothing but smile at my own loss         of balance. The feminine reemerging as the phallus, and the phallus in comfort with its feminine home.          i patiently wait for my Special Kinder Surprise,                                     and meanwhile,                                              satisfy myself with imagination,                                                                to which an interpretation,          would require the use of a million scholarly texts,                                     which still wouldn’t attest to this degree Of Vulgarity,          or this degree Of Sexuality,          or this degree Of Spirituality. Like the slaughter of fowl for mythological pride;                            You hide behind an altar,                                     and with all the holiness i posses, I intend to pull through and impress with Determination.                            --and the petrifying realization— that You are Artemis and i soon to be set upon by the hound                                                            - choking ego to the ground. But damn, it was worth it. worth the, vulnerability worth the, audacity worth the, ecstasy, -It naturally dissolved within me. Only to be pushed down by an incessant flipping of the door, an incessant call to reality. is the overnight truly Over?       —or pray mercy and tell me its begun. The rising Sun seems determined to puncture the fun, And the valiant battle with Apollo seems already to have been won. II.  Lolita Ensnared    I’m getting tired of this shit. A tantrum fit as if we were kids of three. Stomping on adult realized priorities. We wear our hair like a mask,                   we analyze our clothes,                            personify the persona we wish to adapt,          and commend that same personal persona          complimenting its research studied aura.                                                      --I’d rather stay in this dream forever.   (you judged me by my hair    yet remained unaware    to what it masked.) Please don’t preach to me about consideration. The obliteration of that term in action shocks me. Truth be told?—I’m quite Angry, and I feel used, Yes, believe it or not, Abused. Infiltrated and Dominated. And I am a Leo at heart. So to part with my throne will only be met with roars of defense;                                                                to be direct, Aggressiveness. My interlude is met with seclusion—          isolation to the utmost degree— and I see that the world agrees, as I’m met with a phone with no tone and a power-cut of electricity, while the world contracts visibly and the static in the air ensnares my fiery wrath, and storms overhead are weighed down with anxiety and dread that express themselves in raindrops, that I lovingly call tears. I fear this is me at my limit---         And I exhibit nothing but ferocious gloom. This room which contains me is not enough, And I will huff And I will puff Until the walls come down.                   And the only sound to be heard,                            is the numbing effect of silence. My Rifle stands ready to be shot and plunge through that stubborn heart of yours until it is rejected or until the reflected opinion dominates. Is it too much to ask for a change of heart? Empathy? Understanding? Basic societ-ical handling? Apparently yes. So I detest having to put in. The waterworks that I display convey nothing but submission to your inconsideration.                   And the devil in me crosses her fingers                   for experience by example,                   as elephants trample over logic                   and the symbolic is simply symbolic.                                              That’s too much reason for my taste.                                              And I see that it was a waste                                              Trying to impress with determination. Lolita Ensnared has denied a nation of people their feelings,                   listening, with unappealing resolution                   satisfying herself with this conclusion:                   “Let them eat Cake.” --It’s true. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. III. Lolita Verbalize On a park bench it took me quite by surprise, my eyes met with scripture recognizable though not to my hand, the band on my finger tightened and yet the anger seized.          -- How could I not have surmised Lolita Verbalize to enlighten me?-- “Your Majesty;          I owe you My Apology-                   And I couldn’t be sorrier for my selfish self                   has decided to rest after this long period. For She was too busy trying to make you feel safe and home --She was too busy trying to suppress her fucked up whipped cream so that you can have you cake and eat it too— But She failed.         You believe Lolita is selfish, then I’m afraid you never knew Lolita.                   --Lolita loved you with wide arms open and she                   Was pleased to meet you. She hopes it was a useful transition for You. .THE END. The Lolita”
