Have you met the Devil ‘He-She’?
With severe aquiline features?
She’s poised on every pinnacle
Extolling all her preachers
She dances quite seductively
In a body starved for power
Her lips a pursed and cynical grin
For the next victim to devour
She infiltrates all institutions
Vilifies the loving measure
Befriends unwitting foes
All souls for short-lived pleasure
She knows I know her in a room
My Angel ‘tween us silent
I’m the poet she’s come to hate
My verse is non-compliant
My hair, blood and falling tears
Have been noted by the Sun
I have given everything
Now Thy will be done
This shall be her kingdom
Blue-black planet lost in space
A floating grave of ill-repute
Banished in disgrace
So Miss Lady of Disguise
And Mr. Debonair
You’re a CEO of nothing
Except ultimate despair.
