Certitude in Stony Sockets

Modern poetry modern verse contemporary poetry contemporary verse modern poem contemporary poem

The Greek and Roman statues, not the late

Ones, stare so certain first because the truth

Fills up their marble and their bronze.  They hate

Decay in drooping later stuff.  Yes, youth

Looms also part of certitude like theirs,

Not always, though.  Poseidon, brothers Zeus

And Hades, hold true power, not needing heirs.

Their sexualities are always loose.

They grasp whatever in their clutches, rape

(Ignoring wives), but then of course these gals

Were sisters also.  There is no escape

From incest with these guys.  They ram grabbed pals.

  Gods ravish younger women, nymphs and girls.

    This white-eyed squad loves ramming pubic curls.
