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...
