The Tempest


Another of those placid afternoons
Another phallus
With trivial variations
Yet I am still here
Inadequate.

The inquest of my verses 
And their cravings
To get enveloped in my darkness

They designate me as a seductress
Yet they fail
To match my prowess

Do I intimidate
Do I conquer
I really dunno

For like tempest
I swallow their existence
Reducing them to ashes

I have weathered vicissitudes
And these feathers
Will be strewn
For I am the tempest!
