Once I bought a bird in a shop

I opened the cage and let him be

I’m sorry to disappoint you

That I can be too sweet and so weak

And yet I can be cold and cruel too

That I can completely snap to my core

And morph into a creature of different sorts

Or immaculate

Or of any matter

I’m not anything 

At all

Not wholly whole

You see,

Incompleteness

fall here and your stare there

pinned to the pit of ground,

grate your phrase from fireplace.

and divide.

put syllables in pen,

Grim taskmaster, serving
Lashes to the mendacious,
And kisses to the veracious.

Crotch or messy cuddle at a time.

No one asks for enlightenment
In a Dungeon until the dominatrix
Shines through moral fog and
Removes both fear and reticence.

And secrets are sloughed of...
