The minute I get out of bed
So much clutter in my head
Dangling precariously by a thread
How the hours of restful sleep have sped
Once midnight tears all shed
Morning hours awake I dread
Needing to deal with strife instead
When ever so lightly I must tread
After hurtful things were said
Targeted rumors so widespread
People unscrupulously misled
I plan to put up a front and forge ahead

Courtesan rays slip through saffron robes
undaunted countenance persists
past spuriously puffed up wares
burying a man alive
Protect me from this sea
drown out in apprehension
unscrupulously seizing me
Engulf me in a mere chestnut gloss
where the specters lie in wake
loop your thrum against my form
and pleasure you may take
°as the night rests so shall we
and in morning a love will rise

Deeply rooted dark desires
of every deviant sexual urge,
divine and unconscionably
naughty primordial nuances
of sensuality unscrupulously
played out in dreamt midnight
rendezvous or reality if you dare...
it's not so hard to swallow

I am tattered in misery
Dirty; unkept but harmless
Though drained mentally
Begging but forceless
untattered thou in hummer
Oiled and scenty but Abacharical
Though unscrupulously richer
Neocolonizing thy own clan
Starving the represented
Looting and exploiting them
High blood pressure thy means
But thou call me mad
If that is madness
Heaven make me king of madness
