Sissy Ly
she sent
me a photo
perhaps not
knowing a flash
would fill her dark
cave sensitive eyes
so much so
she closed one
so thus began the
myth that was his but
now surely had become
hers for observe as the tale
unfolds on
this second of
nights after two men
we're taken in by her lust
of life and desire but i i had
a plan to piss upon this fire to
put it out
needing none
for some such
desire but ire for
the wench to quench
her thirst but for grape's
blood
i would
shape and
make a pointed
thing not only to last
but to blast it in hot coals
so that
though it
were sharp
it was hard and
hot and ready and
would be released by
us at the
proper time
so we blinded
her and as Ulysses
i felt remorse as to the
force which made my mark
on her
though i
told her my
name was No
Man i thought no
body had made such
a mark
on her
as me
