Kim Rodrigues Poet Rhyme

Venereal Virgin

VENEREAL VIRGIN

Inviolable virgin so fair, pure - pomp and circumstance.
Flexible ballerina doll, toes always pointed - free lance.

Sparkle and shine from your Rapunzle-tower.
Your courageous father makes tendrils* cower.

He abates, as he’s taught you to hate common snakes.
He licks his venomous lips, offering sacrificial fakes.

Your dance card rolls out the red carpet, lust kisses
each sanctimonious step you take. The bait hisses.

You smile he faints.
You faint he smiles.
Your charms outwit.
He’s spinning on a spit.

Spit hits your high, and mighty eye, penetrating.
Eye wash only spreads the disease - degenerating.
