Pharaoh Moans




Enticing ...
Pharaoh pleasure shivers with orgasmic anticipation
of the coming attraction:
Big Caesar Palace  grand entertainment fit for a king
In his granite heart, the king of Egypt laughs:
Two old men gon overthrow me,
and set my slaves free ...
Hebrew please!
His tricky magicians, they were the best — 
they were Sodom-approved: Lewd dudes 
who dung dealt from the bottom of the deck
Those mystics could perform acts,
that you don’t dare let your children do
Pharaoh was moaning
with sheer inner delight
at the lavish debauchery spectacle
planned that night
King Kru-el was gonna show that peasant God,
a piece of Pharaoh’s might
Mocking old men would give his royal court
a delectable treat of public humiliation
Shame that man Moses
for talking foolishly ... his slave God
gon dethrone me ...
Philistine please! 
Pharaoh felt the heat of the sweet anger rising
within his cold heart, vowing:
I’m gon chariot drag Moses’ weak God
into the Red Sea
And them Hebrew slaves
gon always serve me
I ain’t setting my cattle free ... I’m gon always cull,
pick and eat from my Goshen sheep
They ain’t never gon know nothing
but bitter slavery
Me Pharaoh not letting one of them lambs skip scot-free
I’m the master of the whip and chain,
freedom talk gon get you dungeon pain
Deliverer whispers are utterly insane ... crazy
Ethiopian please!
Then Pharaoh moaned 
with untouched ecstasy,
at the thought
that he alone was God only

Pharaoh lived in a fools paradise "with untouched ecstasy, at the thought that he alone was god only" But he was shown what the True God could do and that was to let His people go. And intriguing and profound poem indeed.
