From the mustache, a moon cloud
On the wide waves of a moustache
appears a question — a blinking pearl inside a conch shell
WHAT will it take? WHEN will it stop? WHO is to blame?
throwing glazed camphor on a trembling lip, I gazed at
a mirrored image in the blue depths of a snow glacier
#MeToo, it said.
a bruised sky scatters shadows on a stone wall where — HA HA —
stone-walling men ejaculate on lurid pink billboards of busty sirens
who pout pink lips while sucking an index finger
What next?
on the other side of the question sat a bare-breasted crone
she said
“Feet on red hot bricks get scalded.
But
before the scabby wounds dry,
pickle his penis, put mustard on his head and deliver his probing hand
into the cement mixer of a virgin’s scorched vagina.”
thus saying
she disappeared into a moon cloud
