f.o.n. bondage
as drugged as the addict who is codependent on death,
as mischievous as the priest who has made a pact with Satan,
as whimsical as the amateur who cannot stop giving birth to his soul,
the king is swollen with alcohol and hors d’ouevres
tied up in the fetal position
and his haughty dominatrix has taken it upon herself
to make him straddle the gorge between good and evil;
as enlightened as the democrat in cell block six,
as noble as the 80-year old man who still fantasizes about his wife,
as graceful as the mantis that swallows its mate after sex,
here is the ass end of freedom splayed
over the virgin mattress of its abductor,
waiting to be taken
from behind.
