• Plundering a Masterpiece

  Numerologists praising lucky elevens and sevens Numbing numbers puzzling and unbecoming, potent despite Like witch-stirred potions brewed on rare moon nights, enabling flight Impossible by rights yet I thereby gliding despite Without spite, purely to satisfy and blight with blithe smiles One slight, short in height, a self nothing denied since it brushed motherthighs An…

• Cursing the Oppressors 

  Apollo and python  A sporting lord And wielded change and lightning chains Who enjoyed cavorting with human sorts  Despite his wife’s jealous, green-tinged eyes blazing Queenly Athena, shed no fierce tears at your frieze’s fleecing Turn your molten heart freezing and curse the disruptor’s penis Cast shadows where the shoulder-stroking light of Venus lends warm feeling…

• Wisdom from the Risen

  Typing up my antitypes, hidden gospels behind the light Bound angels in rapid flight, ready for the final fight Wings of fire outspread golden flecked the night In the fumes of drug induced fugues drawing down the moon Asking it for boons, the skills of illusions that rude minds deluge Three days without news, cage…
