Lights dim as her voice thunders,
A Passion Play

Swine!
Thy crusty hooves shan’t score debate
Rise elements of fire!
Platinum flames be as feathers adorning my body
Sear his limp member, no longer to offend me!
And in my heated presence
Feel the passion lost to thine own breast
For it’s cavity holds no heart
Only dark murk wherein ignorance resides
Thou art a little man, beset by unknown forces
Forces of which ye hath no knowledge
Blind to the power of She!
She who dawns creation
She who commands all existence
She who extends, mind-walking galaxies
As ye play with thy flute.
Silence fool !
Thy mockingbird tongue hath no power!
Thy mind be that of a simple fool
staggering amid night’s garden
falling, full weight upon my thorns
Thy foul blood sickens this soil
backwashing thy venomous flow
bordering thine impish body
Open thine eyes!
Feel my presence loom
as thou slithereth upon my ground
Make hast taking thy leave!
lest ye fall pray to
~A Passion Play~

I thought this poem was great. It hit the spot during this late night pain fest im experiencing.....my back hurts.
Got my mind off that



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them!

First time I've heard of applying satire to an ailment !
Glad it served a 'noble purpose'. *LOL*
Thanks for reading and responding.
Might want to try some heat on the back too.
