Docteur Bovary: Blessed Are The Meek.
Yet was oft-mocked, a humble sort,
Subsist med recruit, 2nd strength,
Officier in Public Health grants.
Weds Dubuc, whom his mother grants,
Meets Emma Rouault whom his sort,
Héloïse dies courts Emma, strength.
A doctor of meager practice strength,
Is compassionate and bored grants,
Lacking enterprise ought to sort.
Clueless sort, strength was debted
Emma and grants's her owning
dalliances by various men
justified as being fate.

Down the rabbithole of self.
Pride's snickering-cajole waits in the wings, unmoved, unperturbed
by my prior resistant strains.
My fingerprint residue a ghost
in the remains.
In hallucinogen haunting of k-hole,
flaunting a devouring maw.
How it's juices stain.
In lust's wormhole ride-inside a black hole.
I find-
Turned out like a mirror inside.
In a maze of my brain in a
Labyrinth again.
Her.
Idolatry.
Tempting me to come deeper.
Into her-
Inseminatry.
To burn in the fire.
Rolling in forbidden desire.
In debted emnity, I remain Prodigal,
chasing the dragon's offspring and swallowing my own tail.
In a vicious circle.
Like a cursed marriage ring.
