those folks hired white help,
maybe a Mex to tend to the yards
but they let old lady Latty wash
their soiled sheets, bath towels
and undergarments

they sent out their fine clothes
for that new process called dry cleaning,
a magic Latty would never fathom--how
you gonna clean anything without water
steaming, lye and labor of love

but Latty knew those folks
whose ****-stained drawers
she was scrubbing had more secrets
than money, and she knew to keep
lips God gave her closed

for nobody need know about
the joy juice that was on the sheets
when the man of the house was
gone, and the towels covered
with the seed part of that

weren't none of Latty's business
what sins were seeping under the
cracks of those fine wood doors, or
what other rich as Croesus gents were
walking softly on the polished floors

Latty was off Mondays, but
not on the Sabbath, for it was
often the eve of that holy day
when the most soiling was done
and that didn't bother her none

for Sundays the folks was mostly
gone to church, and whatever sinning
was to be had took its rest like the Lord did,
unless sitting in a pew with a man
you never loved counts as such

I begin to hyperventilate as my compulsion grows. The images won’t go away. Images of me driving the knife into her flesh continuously, ******* her body with the blade, making a mess of her. My head starts going crazy as my thoughts start to return. Shooting pain assaults my mind along with my thoughts. This is disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. How could I ever let myself think these things? But it’s unmistakable. The lust continues to linger through my veins. An ache in my muscles stems from the unreleased tension experienced by my entire body. Her Third Eye is drawing me closer.

Dawn collapsed on top of ******’s hairy chest.
He looked over the top of her white head to her
high brown ****. Snoring she cleared her throat
in her sleep & turning her head proceeded to dream
or whatever she was doing. Laying there muttering
to herself half in obscure gypsy tongues &
half gibberish or maybe another language
altogether. Something strange was happening
nevertheless. He didn’t bother or disturb her.
She’d have enough on her mind soon enough.
Medusa concentrated, squeezing her belly
as she tried to relax her sphincter before she blew
another loud toot. The turds were further apart
but she wasn’t done; Philo’s bismuth tincture
would make sure of that. Daisy marshaled
her forces into groups. Swordswomen with shields
were followed by guards with projectiles and pikes.
Behind them was the rapid-fire artillery fashioned
from  quicker than light ectoplasma. Their
weapons glowed on several planes at once.
The soldiers themselves in several places
simultaneously. They were severely bored
after a prolonged peace. This enemy was completely
unknown and deep out in space. This adventure
was about due. Daisy, sole commander,
inspected her troops. Stepping from the orderly
array she mounted a stone podium where she
could be heard by the hundreds of thousands
rigidly assembled before her; Medusa’s army
composed of the spirits of murdered women
throughout earth’s many ages. They may have
been soldiers or washerwomen, saints or serfs;
they were now warriors in service to the great
Gorgon Goddess Arch Mistress Queen Medusa
and they were unstoppable. Medusa was wishing
she had a cigarette. Huffing air as she tooted
a few more bars of ‘my old Kentucky home’
the easiest tune to play on the backdoor flute.
