Scylla / Charybdis
Scylla wants your broken hope
your broken
bones your broken blood
Scylla eats your body parts
your sex
your youth your coming sons
Scylla loves your golden
blood
your brain
your thought your solid mould
Scylla longs to be your King
your queer
your dear your fucking Queen
Scylla hears your step your
breath
is
underneath your wrecked health
Scylla feeds your stupid
pride
steals your
wife your fetid life
Scylla fucks your fragile
mind
your feeble
kind what lies behind
Scylla strives to carry on
to vibe your
womb to squeeze your lung
Scylla steals your future
gone
your
fractured bone your fear undone
Scylla drinks your holy
thirst
your lowly
gasp your wholly peace
Scylla hates your languid
tears
your liquid
fears your lucid years
Scylla gutless.

Charybdis whirls
and you see
pearls
Charybdis speaks
and you feel
weak
Charybdis lures
and you
sense cures
Charybdis shows
and you feel
throes
Charybdis dances
and you see
chances
Charybdis shines
and you hear
rhymes
Charybdis strips
and your
head flips
Charybdis kisses
and your
heart hisses
Charybdis lies
and you eat
flies
Charybdis hides
and you
drown in tides
Charybdis sings
and your
trust springs
Charybdis scuttles.
