Meaty Man

In all the things of heaven and earth it is man who justified his birth

It is man who steals and man who cheats other men to cut their feet

To any ends, that in end meet, to end their ends is no small feat.

To end each end in small defeat, few seek the feat to meet the meat of man

for meat of man is meant to eat the meat of men that cut their feet

For man is taught to learn defeat, but in the end, those ends won't meet.

Our First Date

I want to hug and kiss you, and get you really drunk.

Hope your boyfriend doesn’t miss you when he wakes up in my trunk.

I’ll put you in my bathtub and fill it up with ice.

I’ll pilfer both your kidneys, though one would still suffice.

I’ll write for you a note, and tie it to your toes.

And 'cause I love you so, this is how it goes:

“You had better go, love,

to the nearest hospital you know of

Or you might die, and I know why,

Just don’t bleed on the floor, love.”

To the Cuckold's Wife

Go ask the cuckold where doth lie his head

To chide the fates in breaking tethered ties

‘Twixt curséd palms of warméd woe; his debt

Unkempt and vexed, while still thou here belies.

Tempered transfixed wrath, reaping woe and Hell;

Countless counts of this thy task where all bleed

Thy depthless vessel, ever-drowning well,

Offered, endless, up all aged men thy seed.

O, grievous gender! Lessened all by lust!

Cannot thy wick be tended sole by him?

Revow thy love must stand all in manners just

And curb thy will to all his subtle whim.

With fresher flame, his lantern keeps out cold

When in thy sultry drape thou art so bold.
