Pearls of Swine

29 Oct

Pearls of swine hang about me,

And nothing more should be said,

Than has been buttoned up and undone over time.

Still, we hear the shouting workmen

Yelling at inanimate machines that disgorge their lot.

A necklace of pearls hangs loose to the beast.

She sighs not from penetration, but from indexed stimulation.
