Venus of Urbino

-->

This lil’ piggy hears the corporate chime,

Dyes violet blonde and whines.

Feeling buffalo blah? This liquid gold

Turns wonder inside out. It’s the secret

Of glam-vicious—sparked by ignoble dukes

Who reign supernovae, where stars come

To die. So, rock, paper, screw you!

I am Woman, of swollen root and form.

Oh my Guinness, cuckoos an un-

Conventional daphne.  It’s the blind,

Leading the blind, an atom bomb

In my ovaries. Where stars come

To die. In alabaster tombs, votives cry

Where is Venus in the ‘I’

Hashtag empires buzz,

Vendi, Vidi, Vici—
