no man                              has looked directly
into the                              undiminished          glory
of the                   Queen of the Universe;
we flow through the ever          changing         colors           of
                                             her                        glory
                         [it really irks me
     when Catholics claim Plato's
       ideal forms; the good, true, beautiful
& the Republic (ripped off by Augustine
for the City of God);                 |                  |     Socrates was a hippy
    who heard voices; his students Plato
                      & Aristotle [her witness]
               wondered if the old professor             was on something - - & why Diogenes slept down      by the river so he's there when the ships
sail          in from Africa        
         [Diogenes saw this
as riding the white horse] -                     ***** & smelly, Diogenes
got laid every night;                 no small feat:
the master cynic sold dope
                  out of the alley & |  Socrates was known
                  to be subject  to spontaneous nosebleeds,
   making some suspect evil spirits -
his perpetual runny nose also                      made him a potent
                     source of mockery & satire;
his philosophy portrayed                       as confused &
    portentous for being supposedly dictated by Logic;
                             [later to influence
         decadent young Roman poets]
so in the morning & he can get a fix
in exchange                              for some quick *****                   word games:
myriad eyes & in & out her
beautiful         |                             body's black holes
                                                     [she feels as good as she looks]
not only          |                             is the eternal queen's
glory undiminished, i                   t's her skin's                     luster
ever continuing to grow &              glow ever
brighter even if we could never
  gaze upon her undiminished glory        w/ mortal eyes],              her eyes
staring                  right back at us            [it wouldn't be at all   weird
if through the ******-up lens
                     of our media-distorted                 culture,
future societies assume                 Jesus Christ was an      
                               early     stand-up comic
whose jokes |           absolutely no one got]|
& through [strung out temple ****** loiter
[philosophers sitting in cozy armchairs discuss
| the nature & meaning of Nothing] |
                       & linger leaning on the Dorian                    pillars
                         one foot unshod working girl
consecrated         [special effects are boring]                      to the supreme                          
                      goddess of love:
it's ******* Aphrodite through  
                   transubstantiation:
                                         u are ******* Aphrodite]
us w/out our                 becoming aware of [              ]
her living       |       [presence throughout the
all known existence; |  this singular
queen of all time & space] is just a
woman; we live w/in her as she lives
for all infinity - eternity - everlasting
&                                    the ages of woman represents
[every woman                                    every girl & | [whatever age
          can be counted the               woman        knows who she is];
from daddy's      girl-to-stepmother:  
from toddler to crone:                         [one continuous
experience of                                consciousness] her I
                 is not I;         her we is us
