Foolish Prattle

Like deBergerac in reverse
I hide the hideous me
With outward beauty
And empty lines of verse

There's a sense of rebellion
Inside me today
Forsaken by all I rant and rave
Muse give me something to say

No foolish prattle of Cadillacs
No guns fired over deck
Wings of wax, or whirlpools deep
I'm tired of writing dreck

Make of thy servant a writing dervish
Let me speak of maidens fair
None of whom resist my charms
When my sweet poems I air

Bring me breasts like mandarins
And like a bee to honey sticky
I'll fly and satisfy my desires
Please let me dip my wicky
