The Maenad
___________________________________________________________________
A tiny tincture for this magic.
A little poison, suspended in oil,
floating in clear water
Drink deep of this spoon
Combine withPumpkin Spice
or Coors light If you must
.
WE are Americans we have no desire
to see the underpinnings of things.
American Violence and American sex are
sterile hollows devoid of all meaning.
No blood, no gore, no afterbirth, no stillborn,
nothing that could offendThose advertising DOLLars and Sense
what really fill us up with yearning for remaining currency.
Hot for dripping Green stacks on our backs,Stuffed like credit turkeys or payday
Next day-loan fuck sleeves
.
This whore abhors the replacing of moist human seeds and pulp with
papier Mache Mattel pastel Monopoly money.
Such tax attorney taxidermy is but a steady diet of souls
Bound for the common, green hell.
