Stinking And Kinky Poem by RIC BASTASA

an aching tooth
is a whetting of stone
with a knife
of steel

it winds itself to
the inner core of the
brain

the pain lingers
like an old memory
no distraction
removes it

by analogy is this
aching heart
making me soundless
in the middle o
this crowd
deaf to the sounds
of your celebrations
lame to the
calisthenics of love
blind to the delights
of romance

an auger to an ogre
sticking to what is
stinking and
kinky....
