Probably knocked down by a bottle from the heavens.
Maybe the gods must be crazy
To think I’d believe I’m in the bed of a king.
Two days ago, I stumbled upon
A scroll.
And in it, was scroll within scroll within scroll,
Until there was nothing but chaos in my flesh.
A quick rush and bam!
I’m up, up and away into the dark night.
Here I am, face to face with half dressed ladies
And smoothly shaved men whose eyes followed my every movement.
“What do you care for?”
“Should I get the water hot while I await your call?”
I close my eyes an make a wish.
I am never coming back.
Wow. Until there was nothing but chaos in my flesh. This is such a powerful image. Lovely poem.
