Fornicating In The Bowels Of Unswerving Reason Poem by Captain Cur

Fornicating In The Bowels Of Unswerving Reason



Artifacts of emotional distress
left chiseled on your soft dimpled cheek;
sensuous, predatory you stand,
motionless, pedestaled on the edge
of unswerving reason.
This disease of lust fornicating
in my bowels has twisted
all semblance of chaste morality.
I leave these words at the base
of your stone feet.

I have sacrificed all for you,
for my edification by your tongue
I will return an unburied corpse
and bathe you in my blood.

Dear Lady,
loquacious in your speech,
armaments of desire can bring no lasting peace.
With what weapon I choose to close the bounds
between the Old World and the New
on this neutral ground in which we stand
there is no escaping truth.

Any poem with the word fornicating in the title is always a great poem. This one is, too.
