The Maenad

Hungry Dancers
Happily Eating
Maggoty Meat
Justice? I want to call the Wild Hunt
A feast for the Old Gods
Haul out all of the old ways,
Even if only just
For one very fun day.
An actual Dionysian revel
I just want to throw it for the RNC
The food, the meat, would be awful
But the taste of justice would be sweet enough to eat
I’ll be your huckleberry, your awful cannibal queen
