bring the whip to quiet it
as good as little old me is
at the appropriate game
the beast that is my sexuality
wants no part of denial
born early (emergency c-section)
prematurely ripping forth
torn immediately assuming
a firm wide stance
legs spread
in opposition to
all the rules
and demonstrative diagrams
screaming its own weird tune
louder than humping humback
whalesong
the world has never
even approached
a place safe from its grip
i am myself swollen stiff
caught in paralysis at the
incessant sound of its
metallic sheening
(only sometimes
demeaning)
relentless
roar
