Ask About Beauty

I composed the following in a Java applet at Prominence.com on February 7, 1998.

ask about beauty

picture a gorgeous girl
who did she cry to
when she let her only friend go

could you live
  beneath man
  behind language

is life a nanosecond
  or one day

I think it will be true

how they lie sincerely

if their dreams
can not show
why sleep is void
of time and meaning

On My Fridge as of 2001-03-27

you never tell me
my skin is smooth
or my hair is luscious

I only think about me
but I always dream of your beauty

a woman’s bare breast
is a sweet delicate peach
I can eat with raw lust

we must scream together
and sing sadly

I felt an urge
but you are gone

our love will mean what most want
yet we still show
a shadow of a storm

the music from the black & white TV is repulsive

she worships godesses

men like to beat the meat
and drool in their beds

I want to live for an eternity
for death is but an ugly bitter man
and life is a gorgeous friendly girl

watch the boy
he needs to cry
ask him why
it could be bloody
so have a knife
to drive through his head

smear chocolate on her legs and butt
lick her juicy pink parts
smell the sweat
it’s like honey

panting
moaning
heaving
one   essential   moment
timeless
powerful

he used to swim in a cool blue lake
when the sun was hot as red sausage

pound the puppy with rocks

please do not rust here

ask my drunk mother
she plays fiddle like mad
& shakes frantically in her sleep

love manipulates by producing visions
of rose petals on the spring
and misty moonlight
some recall all of it
then say after
how it’s delerious and not true
elaborate fluff

void of sordidness

spray
rain
waterfall
flood
sea
of milk
