Apple of Discord
written by: Steven Fortune
To slip my blushing presence
into your exquisite banquet of
seraphic essence
I’m inclined to utilize
the capitalization
of a messenger’s texture
emblazoned with the sweetest
signatures in dedication
to the divination of your
swilling inhalation
effeminate and circumstantially ferocious
in the company of skewed timidity
for your evasive vanity
The scribe of a libidinous anatomy
is covetous of an authoritative voice
poised to acquiesce to the Olympian
desirability between your honeyed lips
quick as its authority was won
