Imagine if a daffodil could feel,
when in an idyll wandering lonely by,
some poetaster at its cup should kneel,
to suck that dilly's filament root dry!
Then after as they idly share a fag,
a dirty dil unzips its golden dew,

Of Zero Worth
"Merely 80 to 90 percent of children in the wilderness
die in Pain --
generally slow."
-- Biophysics 101
for romantic poetasters of poor taste
*
Yet countless lizards, snakes, and frogs as well as insects thrive,
enjoying baby hummingbirds ingesting them alive,
while often peckish jays and crows the living fledglings eat,
and squirrels, skunks, and chipmunks mince the conscious, feeling meat,
as rhymesters and romanticists in love with "Mother Earth"
full fancy children in the wild possessing zero...

The Cat's Meow in Thong Pajamas and Six-Inch Heels
"Cat got your tongue?"
-- a grinning Cheshire to a vast clowder of feminist felines
*
Domesticated pussies tamed to iron, wash, and dry --
as well as countless itty kittens bitty mittens knit --
the independent modern feline female full belie
who on all fours yet scrubs her tomcat's litter box of shit.

Ego -- Brain; Brain -- Pain; Pain -- Need; Need -- Air, Water, Food, Sex, Cocaine
or
The Illusion of Changing Water into Wine Exists; It's Just Not Real
"A frustrated cigar is just a cigar in pain needing some smoking-hot sex."
-- a non-Freudian in need of a cigarette after some smoking-hot sex
*
The "ego" is a brain, a neural chain
evolved to function as a private eye
whose magnifying glass detects but pain,
the only villain true to signify --
the sleuth a lifetime spying nagging clues,
deducing elementary...

Pied Died --
at the Age of Obvious to a Three-Year-Old
"All things counter, original, spare, strange;
Whatever is fickle, freckled (who knows how?)
With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;
He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:
Praise him."
-- a romanticist of faith
"Plus praise 'him' for the toilet brush --
not to mention intelligently designed
deodorizers."
-- a Realist of Reason
*
I hate all things that spring up after rain,
like spring or rhymesters singing spring has sprung, ...

Buttercups and Sweet Peas Reaped
or
The Stages Set for Grief
"What you sow, I reap --
after I fuck it over."
-- a grossly obese Grim Reaper
yet of an appetite
greedy
*
Close listen to the tick-tock of thy biologic clock --
Time ill at ease reminding thee to sow a teensy seed
ere withered tubes and ovaries upon your womb come knock
announcing to thy lady parts the chance hath passed to breed!
Imagine thou the Horror on the hearing of such news --

Mine Outcast State
"It's not easy being the real frog in the fairy tale."
-- on the real frog
the wart of Reality
*
Each time a rhymester scribbles of self-love,
of pregnant virgins, "souls," and "gods" above,
of Mother Nature sweet and hope upbeat,
I look upon this verse and curse its feet --
in full disgrace with poetasters' eyes
each child in pain who each five iambs dies.

Inhuman Vampires

Burt Bacharock for a Brain
"Love begets love; just ask close-knitwit
terrorist cells."
-- for lovers of love
Logic 101
*
Our loving world of love sweet love no longer loving needs,
since each close Ku Klux Klan of caring buddies, buddies breeds,
the palsy-walsy Nazi party neo-Nazis seeds,
and loving Christian bombers fond of clinics sprout like weeds.

No Intelligent Life Yet on Mars --
or on Most of the Emerald Isles
"It's hard never to have been green."
-- countless puny Irish spermatozoa tadpolelike

O, how sad is St. Paddy's on Mars --
still no little green men quitting bars
clearly queer on green beer
cheering Brit Eddie Lear
veering off Irish roads in green cars!
