> You tell me the earth is bleeding -
> so what? The old bitch is in heat again,
> forging a wake of blood-spots
> as she whines at the sky.
> Tell me what you think she summons
> from the darkness, what lurks outside
> the yard, sniffing, cock twitching with must?
> Oh, the angels of light would be at
> the latch, flinging the gate wide.
> They worship fertility with every quill-quiver,
> but they can't fuck - there's the juice.
> They'd hover over the whelping
> like cramp-bellied buzzards. Sex
> thrills them, the mad abundance of sperm,
> seed and spawn lavish as Solomon's wealth.
> They swoon in the vicarious heat
> of passion, melt in mirrored comes,
> eyes raised and narrowed to lasers.
>
> Spread your dark wings, lads, drive off
> the dogs, ride shot-gun to prevent
> that curse of belly. I could have snipped
> the cord long ago, ended the threat,
> but the governor claims it's unnatural,
> that all possibilities must be allowed.
> He won't open the gate, but if it were
> to swing ajar, with a breeze, a waft
> of pinions, a nudge of sandal-sole -
> well, that's already accounted for
> in the long-range plan. It's his job
> to dream, and our duty to act.
> Dip the buckets in Lethe, fill flasks
> with citronella (save the garlic
> for my gazpacho). Shrill the great sirens
> and launch the squadrons to deep swarm
> again. Bugle me, boys, and remember:
> brightness hides the enemy.
