Rare

Taboos come in cool hues  
especially clear fluids  
soaking into subconciousness  
Commercialized nonsense  
Kotex, Tampax...  
"Less red mess!"  
Fibers filled with fiction  
blue raspberry menstrual myths  
   
Fortunes founded in industry    
of keeping reticence maintained    
Perpetual premiums    
& packaged taxes  
"luxuries" to soak with shame  
Patronizing pain    
for exorbitant gain  
   
Our shushed secrets stay  
slipped  
up hoodie sleeves  
Concealing cotton shots  
so no one sees  
   
Silicone enigmas  
shelter ruby springs  
suspended  
& brimming in stigmas  
Merlot impeded  
in incognito    
misnomers    
for "Diva" denotes someone free  
   
So we ache    
through noiseless quakes  
constraining each racy complaint    
Maintaining our compliance
in silence
for convention's sake  
   
Aligning our alibis    
to match the pallor  
of anemic lies  
Limply lying  
& burrowed in blankets    
while limpet shell clawings  
furrow us inside  
   
Wrapping  
& re-wrapping tracks  
cramming waste-bins    
with corroborations    
of our cardinal  
civic sins  
   
Catching "the flu"  
4 times in a season  
Cause' it's less uncouth  
than sanguine truth    
   
& you're repelled by presence    
presented  
by pomegranate berry stains  
Though you proudly prate  
of pirating our velvet straits  
on all but 5 vermilion days  
(give or take...)  
   
The moonly maroon  
monsoon  
you dare to impugn    
as if  
it's very ensuing    
never resulted...
