Yesterday I wrote a few poems to cheer up your weekend.
Stalked
Stalked by our own virility
The cthonic monster of fertility
Will drown us in our own flesh.
The Malthusian oceans of humanity
Riding swells of pleasure and vanity
Have snared us in its mesh.
Like a flood
Inundating
The Earth
Sweeping all before it.
Like a fire
Consuming
The land
Turning it to ash
Like a plague
Infecting
The body
Dissolving the breath
Swamping everything
Reducing everything
Killing everything
In the pangs of pleasure.

Oh dear – I need to find something to cheer me up, now! Well written, Opher, you have captured it all.
Thanks Raili – not quite like your Saturday Smiles eh?
NO, but I did like the elephant trunk vignette 🙂
I had to cheer you up somehow Raili!
