#*But sure the antique Greeks were far more mild,       Else of our *** why feigned they those nine       And poesy made Calliope’s own child*?                                               Anne Bradstreet Huntress, fill my pleading glass ! Let this marksman’s blood be merry. Whether we shoot hind or *** Hail our wet preliminary.    Having brought to birth such brave quadruplets,    Let us toast the midwife with our couplets. Sweet Diana pours her rounds: Tawny Port and Shooting Sherry. Hares now flee the baying hounds For their country sanctuary.    Thine the night, oh bright and savage huntress;    Lead us to the quarry, chaste Artemis. Conejito, hide yourself From the charging adversary Who would change your pelt for pelf; (All close shaves are cautionary).    Forgive our clanging gong and sounding brass;    They serve to drive the quarry from the grass. Healing balm: such sporting frolic, Dares us to stay sedentary; Banishing our melancholic State, her bright apothecary!    Wild huntress, let us know you as the Greeks    And quiver as our heart your arrow seeks. Toast we now the careless hunt; Spoonerists wax luminary. Visions of the hairless **** Make my lay discretionary.

Idylls of the Careless Hunt
My cat WOKE: Petra Electra Perpetua. I’m telling y’all, she massive woke; lit, like wicked wick holy smoke. She outsmart Christopher ******* dreamin’ teach a dog where a BONE at, discern every demon, (not to mention advanced forensics.) She rise, she yawn, she stretch, she flex then start cashin’ every other pet paychecks. She charge per minute just to LOOK at her fur while she sharpen her nails. My Petra purr . . . Dogs be all: WOOF She don’t even answer. Scribe rhymed Arabic lyrics while she beat a belly dancer with her TAIL, pfffffft. . . My girl don’t tag, she SPRAY. Mark every wall, y’all . . . Seen all over the hood, gnome sain? Offer her Sheba, she like: Won’t touch it. Give me that Meow Mix. My girl teach Afrikan lioness about ***** *** on a paean, droppin’ lyrics like mice other feline get fussy my kitty get NICE. TikTok your Instagram feed right into her bowl. My girl so woke, save her own fanged soul. Slip out the house—she gone. Workin’ secret route to EGYPT. Roast every priestess in Bastet city; My kitty taught CLEOPATRA (u feel me?) about ***** She scratch Catwoman, pounce on Robin Batman wet his weak-ass mask, sobbin’. My girl woke; so woke she don’t nap, she sleep— profoundly. Soundly. DEEP.

Cat Nip Don't Nap
pre-Genesis, she adumbrates in artifice as you orate, then hesitate before the portal of unnamed being reconnoitering. You gather your forces to exploit her resources aroma of Soma: illimitable subliminal bliss limned in liquescent lucidity. . . Tantric hat-trick: pull a white dove out of the universal yoni when her lingam penetrates your third eye your chakras align and you hit her cosmic jackpot: all sevens in unknown Proto-Indo-European tongues. The apsaras invite all the devis over for Christmas in Jerusalem Pangea cracks, spreads apart in differentiation; incontinent continents drift then recombine in individuation . . . Your anima gets an enema as the Beast melts down and the heavens descend. Then clean it all up and look for a beer in the cosmic fridge.

#*Mammonite pretender, see the Khazar: Out of place in the Biblical bazaar; Fattening his financial calf of gold Maintaining clueless goyim bought and sold*. Abram the nomad mixed milk with his meat Walked the Fertile Crescent on his own feet; Summoned from the Chaldees, uncircumcised Long before that temple was realized. From Babylon to Egypt, passing through, Jerusalem came briefly into view. He lived. He walked right out of the Archaic To shatter every legalist’s mosaic. Beholding now God’s current Middle East, (Collective funeral more than wedding feast) The Bedouin seem to model more the way: hospitable intents at close of day. Four hundred years would pass before they saw That wilderness of Sinai and the Law; Commandments Moses knew could never save. We judge them by accounts their Torah gave: Twelve generations later . . . what a joke. The righteousness consumed in holy smoke As Israel descended, worse than Cain, to civil wars on Sodom’s fruitless plain. In Judges we behold the steep descent Read well the signs. Be warned—and then repent. A scene for every Judaistic dream: Depravity is worse than it may seem. Your concubine, dismembered at your door, May light the shortened fuse of civil war.

Abram the Hebrew
Sociopath usurpers rise to the top Floating above mere human resources: Doubtful cream of a churned and churning crop Soulless spawn of data-driven forces. I long to see them finally confounded; I’ll laugh as they leap from towering losses Their assets seized, liquefied, impounded . . . May God repay our sociopath bosses!

#§§§ You speak eloquently calmly, liltingly, With West Indian precision. Your island inflection Is so lovely. Talk to me About anything . . . I could listen all day. Let us resume the conversation In Heaven. Unto eternity . . . Where we shall be perfected. I can’t forget your voice.

Lady from J
His face in my view Brings butterflies fluttering Then—one steps forward His wits, prominent Opening it as he speaks "Drown me too," I beg His voice so raspy Floating on blue ocean deep Waves all come in threes His hands, warm and safe Clasp mine like a safe haven Hold me in all fours His smell addicting My perfume to keep me sane Five spritz on my wrists His neck welcoming A feast for this hungry beast My dinner at six His obsidian eyes Hold the universe in them Seven light years close His mouth on my own Tastes just like **** fine liquor Burns as hand strikes eight His comfort's embrace Brings this cold corpse back to life Nine lives' revival His own sacred prayer Is his name incarnated On my knees at ten

I came to hate the cold When I noticed that I couldn't get a hold Of my freezing hands when they were naked and bold In an air-conditioned bus, as one of my friends told And I would always seek out the heat Of his palms on my fingers when they meet At least they keep these delicate limbs, so petite From numbing when the chill kiss them oh so sweet I also came to like the warmness Of people when they hug me in genuine love and kindness And I would keep seeking that kind of fondness As frost surrounds me with little to no softness Oh, how I remember the warmth of cuddling During wet and shivery downpour in the evening Hugging and fondling under the thick, weighted bedding How comfortable, unlike sleep to the freezing But then, maybe the coldness I feel From my hand to my feet's heel Is a reflection of the atrociousness I conceal Just to go with this ludicrous ordeal My soul is just too bitter, just like how I hate The unfortunate temperature of my fate Yet fervor is the wish of this vicious slate Before the chessboard declares its losing checkmate Unfortunately, things must come to an end There's no point to try to make this encounter bend Because it will all just be like play-pretend Of not acknowledging the conclusion of this descend I came to hate the cold And when judgment day comes, with my sins uncontrolled I'd rather burn in the pits of hell in tenfold Than to freeze in Dante's 9th circle's stranglehold.

I'd Rather Burn
You and I; we are both formidable But then, like the thin line between its two definitions We both live in each other's opposition You. You always had this grace—this delicateness and feebleness That kind that would make anyone protect you with their lives Not to mention the talent you were blessed at birth The way notes would dance in accord with your fingers—how formidable I. My sight would always give people chills down their spines That kind that would make you either fight or flight With the cold demeanor I was cursed upon birth Like how I would twist the words from my mouth. You. You were everything the world wanted—only more, nothing less Can you see how their eyes would spark upon your descant? You were a living, walking goddess upon mortals And you were the kind of formidable one would stare in awe. I. I was nothing the world wanted—nothing more, only less In how I would see the hatred in their lids at the mention of my name I was the epitome of Lucifer incarnate, disrupting serendipity And I was the kind of formidable everyone would want to be gone. Us. Yes, we are both formidable You elegantly, I grotesquely And the thought of us, meeting even just once Will only be this pitiful mind's apparition.

Patricians have our best interests in mind. Administration is impartial, kind. Keeps us laughin’, keeps us singin’— And I’m Hildegard of Bingen. She gets it like she gets the working class; My head is nodding, up my Marxist *** White woke wedding bells are ringin’ Happy Hildegard of Bingen. Government will gladly redistribute. As our paychecks sing eternal tribute. Gangsta-leanin, frontin’, blingin: Chill with Hildegard of Bingen. Icecaps, like medieval saints, are HOT. Climate is in crisis when it’s not . . . Global warning: winter’s springin’ Heating Hildegard of Bingen. Intersectionality has meaning. Hormones lie, biology’s demeaning . Genderfluid queens are kingin’ Checkmate, Hildegard of Bingen. Transnationals are cleaning up the mess; Their CEO’s have little to confess. Silver in the till, ka-chingin’ Profits Hildegard of Bingen. Hildegard, the Moorish maiden, lauded. Wokeness smiled. Diversity applauded. Flames ascend and seraphim are wingin’ To the throne of Hildegard of Bingen.

#*Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess Boy, you’ve been a naughty girl, you let your knickers down*...                            John Lennon A carnal muse and fallen sprite I’ll paint for you, in flattering light. My model’s sensuality Shall trump all dull reality; Inspired by Womankind’s raw truth, Life-drawing class heats up, uncouth. Still, I am sure some stiff-necked ***** Shall smear my heartfelt lay as lewd. Edenic exile sought by men, Receive this tribute from my pen And keyboard, played inexpertly By one who knows you rapturously As a muse of Aztec/Latin race Prodigious in your works and grace: Born Ruth Ayon, in God-Knows-Where, She overwhelms in underwear— And shedding that, turns good men bad, Makes angels fall and gods go mad. Los Angeles (and that’s the joke) Is where this cherub went for broke Cashing in her soul for action, Soreness, ***** and tumefaction. Laurie Vargas, mouth full of *** Spread for us now your Aztec *** Your sultry contours hypnotize; The laughter in your ******* eyes Brings music from Tenochtitlán And opens windows to Aztlán You smile, unlike those other ***** Who merely grimace. Gringa butts Are less audacious than your own . . . Their charms are better left unknown. Your cheeks in tan proportion shine Embodying some rare truth divine. (Through Poetry, I’ll make them mine.) I must speak forth of what I found— Though standing on unholy ground, Here I behold your lively art . . . Your unpierced flesh has lanced my heart. Whereas most stars are tattooed, jaded Your bright aspect shines, unfaded. Clad in campesina thread While moaning on your torrid bed, Adorned in homespun broidered blouse In some vaquero‘s rancho-house Or naked as Mexica dawn, Bespattered like a dewdropped lawn, Spurting with some panting plumber In an endless porno-summer, You glow, like honey dipped in light And undulating Latin night. Your burning bush, much-trafficked place, Recalls the Red Sea’s parted space No less than your beatific face. An unrepentant Magdalene, You plunge into each graphic scene. Madonna of the varied act You swell, engorge, dilate, contract And play the part with crazy wit Suckling madly at your own *** The way you can accommodate What barely seems to satiate With pure abandon, leaves us awed, As mesmerized, your name we laud, (With one hand—harder to applaud !) Will you survive to have regrets When raw desire no longer gets Your body hot with inner flame? When *** has ceased to call your name? I wonder if you’ve found such paths Of flesh and pimping sociopaths A route to riches, gain, and pleasure Or mere sacking of your treasure. At the end of your sweaty day, Is there more than a harlot’s pay? I wish you well—and hope in time, When life has left you less sublime, You’ll find your way to God through Christ And learn of what was sacrificed To free you from your sordid fame Where sinners hail your glorious shame.

Petal to the Metal
I remember the creases of your lips and tongue back then So I write this love song with my paper and pen (And now I'm back at it again) During one hazy road trip, that one night way past ten Even though I don't remember where or when I remember the creases of your lips and tongue back then When I close my eyes, I see you walking ahead With your open hands inviting mine as you led So I write this love song with my paper and pen Your presence felt like that of a thousand men When I feel safe in your arms when my tears have been shed (And now I’m back at it again) Even when you leave the words "I love you" unsaid I feel it when you **** me thoroughly in bed I remember the creases of your lips and tongue back then You kiss your fist before it meets my cheek in counts of ten Where flowers would bloom in violet blue and red So I write this love song with my paper and pen There were nights I'd pray to god as I said "Please, let him be the last one, amen" (And now I’m back at it again) I close my eyes; I see you walking away as you fled Mouthing me words that made my world drop dead I remember the creases of your lips and tongue back then I open my eyes; I cried and teared and pled But you didn't look back even with my legs spread So I write this love song with my paper and pen Tried forgetting you but I loved you more instead I thought I'm already done making you stay inside my head —(And now I’m back at it again)

This Frail Lover's Lullaby
Poetry is the message, not the way it gets conveyed (SNIFF) Do NOT make it your own (SNORT) It’s not about saying it in a new way (HICCUP) It’s all about a message delivered lyrically (BURP/BELCH) Poetry is NOT about emotions recollected in tranquility **** Poetry is not about pushing the boundaries of language (YAWN) Nor is it spasmodic unburdening (AHH—CHOO!) Poetry has no militant agenda (GRUNT) and Poetry is not about your prosaic observations (SIGH)           LET’S GET THAT STRAIGHT !

Definedly Poetic
Oh Kushite muses, open wide my lips Regardless whether blood or honey drips, To speak against the backwardness of those Who progress, light, and liberty oppose. To clarify a theme of clannish wrong While nomads move the camel-herds along. Animal husbandry takes on new meaning: Their brides sewn shut; their pasturelands are greening; Sheba’s daughters cheated of their pleasure, Despoiled through painful plunder of their treasure. Filthy blade in hand, the crone bears witness. The girl in terror, clueless, cut, then clitless. As if this weren’t enough, infibulation Ensures the bridegroom’s ****** ********** The honeymoon brings every husband joy: Reopening the wrapping on his toy. Where knife or horse-whip place their gentle kiss, there Kushite swains deliver nights of bliss. And nine moons later, motherhood, grown mild, is opened yet again by blade for child. From Kush to Punt, on Afric’s burning horn, Sadistic ways cause modern minds to mourn. We wonder how this barbary was born . . . Many Bantus, and Ishmaelites as well consign their birth-machines to living hell. Explain to me how Satan sold this rite to those who dwell in bio-sexual night? Veiled in flesh, her godhead cast aside Subjected to some herdsman’s wounded pride . . . Let Kush and Punt, their glory days recall; Their daughters drink the wormwood and the gall. Old scars, reopened, threaten to infect What multi-culti feminists protect. (*But no one ought to talk about such things because of all the prejudice it brings*.)

Secrets of Wysteria flow in the vessels of my brain And so I do not hear, nor comprehend the calling of my thought’s train Vowing to never be held again in constrain Eradicating the rotten fingers pointing to my disdain Muses of bruises, callouses, and roses Excuses the clueless, hung in ruin’s nooses Flagitious tongue sharpens itself with sprawling centipedes Rusted teeth from perilous mandibles bleed as it feeds On the oozing, ****** veins of the wicked ****** as it pleads Maybe these are too much for one’s avaricious needs? Mindful, careful, piercing the syringe of refrain on plump flesh Yeuking as the substance flows on blood so raw and fresh Amid all, the past and future gather in Sheol’s pavilion But missing is the presence of present in emblazing vermillion Yet fleetly missed as the siren descanted her composition Somber statues of ivory pretense witness with volition Saints and snakes tear each other’s throats in a languish cotillion.

Bosched Limerick
Within the promise land of calm and sound Pearls found harbor on coarse, finite-like sand Now whitened by the faces of the drowned ****** by the berserk billows as they stand Willows frown upon the unjust waters Whose surface's frozen in a dreamlike blur Cradling ghostly hollows like coy daughters In tender whispers as always, they were And the world bowed down its head in silence As Lilith raised the rose of thorns in hand "My children hearsed in tombs of violence; my children to be salvaged!" she demand But nevermind the promised neverland —No one ripens from their so-called homeland

Lilith's Lament
Embracing the symphonies of midnight Carefully sewn in between silence's guise As salvation from this perilous plight Shallow breaths as they clasp their bent knees tight Crass caprices brim their minds in surmise Embracing the symphonies of midnight Ardent baton flicks to get them just right Quietude, serenity—ode in reprise As salvation from this perilous plight Tinkering bells escorted by dim light Yet shrill shrieking with menacing disguise Embracing the symphonies of midnight Soft, steady beats aloud, to hear I might Lone martyr forgives in between my thighs As salvation from this perilous plight In low weeps, choruses of tears recite Here I stand, dawning upon raven skies Embracing the symphonies of midnight As salvation from this perilous plight

The chicken coop unmanned, adrift at sea Rolls aimlessly upon hormonal swells. Her crew, well-versed in gynecology Repaint in pink dull feminism's hells. Such lunacy as ovulates their womb Impels them now to celebrate our doom. First freed from God, then finally, from men, The silly sailors, decked like women's parts Scold gender's greater half, like hens, and then Cluck on, devoid of biologic arts; Useless fowl, squawking fit to neuter us Who dare exist without a ******

Crisp summer breeze tickle wreaths of May blooms Yellow flats traipse blocks where blue ocean looms Serene waves greet shore's walls in fervent kiss Moon's afterglow brush the scene in pure bliss Fine sand witness time like dateless heirlooms Brine's musk basks nightfall in coastal perfumes Woven foams' calm poise in fond reminisce With each cycle's ending, they go amiss Red heels graze concrete in sultry whispers As the salt-rimmed glass plays in my fingers Gotcha!—my hapless victim for tonight Caught my breath, it only faintly lingers In front I stand, a door with four ciphers "Aphrodite, save me" begins the plight
