Deep Woods
...In the DEEP woods, where shadows CREEP and play,
The winds WEEP, secrets SPEAK and sway,
As branches CRACK, the night FALLS back.
The MOON glows with a silver TUNE so bright,
Each star SPAR...

To Be Inspired, I Suck the Muses' Breasts
...To be inspired, I suck the Muses' breasts;
and, like young babes that thirst for tender milk,
and for health from their mother's nippled chests,
I champ the teats sublime for strain...

A Stupid Affair
...Master Painter was a lover whom kissed his canvas portraits
After his work of arts he thought them finely gorgeous
Long lengths in time with his prime he grew to be obsessed
Of their lips, cheeks...

Lamia
...So often now, as I lie sleeping
She calls to me, sweet sister, weeping
For a lover’s love.
And I, a suckling babe,
Am roused from rest
To suck upon her rosebud nippled breast.
To feast upon her...

Nativity
...Some are born by paupers
Their struggle starts at infancy;
With dried-up bottoms
And washed-out concertina ribs,
Yet their rust-colored teeth find solace
On their mother’s shriveled breasts.

Things Gone Missing
...There once was a flexible stripper
got her nipple caught in a zipper
the fabric flexed
but she was vexed
It got sawed off in the gripper
There once a one-nippled stripper
she lost her nip in ...

Lined with hundreds of lavender pleats
Spiraling, drooping, whirling
All over my voluptuous contour …
Bare these limbs grinding on soft moss

Foggy Bottom
...Foggy Bottom . . .
and top, full surround,
without sound.
Socked In, in pilot lingo,
moving blind, no visible exit;

Incestuous Youth
...Late afternoon surfers
clasp the wind-swollen waves
to chests rounded and tanned,
jut-nippled and muscular --
the scent of their youth
fresh as the salt air.
