Lament

Lament to My Cunt.
Oh, wide meadow of sweet grass, open your wild flowers
bee-kissed and stung, bring back the butterflies
and birdsong
Drifting pollen yellow breeze gently please
blow away the polluted air
Breathe again the sunlight and the morning's night
Vacate the beasts that lurk within
bring them out from the wet jungle
Expose their shining eyes to the world
let their wilderness go...
Lament their death and grieve their lives.
They have ravaged your forests
and made them a dangerous place
They have broken the eggshells in their nests.
The dinosaurs have gone
but we are still unsafe.
Lament to my cunt,
Vessel! On my seas...
You have been tossed on the storm!
you have ridden the waves.
I will let the seas calm and clear the toxic oils
that float in marble pools.
Lament, return the lawnmower buzzing loudly
and lock it in the barn.
Roll into the haystacks and yawn,
lie there quietly.
