DREAM
Sense the smile of the milk,
touch it only in your mind;
Crave and savor but you can’t taste the cream.
Nature’s most powerful urge
beckons eat, indulge, enjoy!
But all you can do is DREAM.
Strap ‘elm all inside
this giant chastity belt,
sea to U.S. sea with nary a seam.
Lock ‘elm up, destroy the keys
that reproduce love and the lovely
So all they can do is DREAM.
“Hear no evil, see no evil”
taste-not, touch-not hypocrisy,
“Speak no evil!” all the evil keepers scream!
But the craving joy to touch, to love, to give
and be loved, comes again
Still, all they get to do with it is DREAM
Pound them here, bash them there,
destroy, again destroy, destroy some more.
Don’t let them have one ounce of self-esteem.
But most of all the cardinal rule
is rule out the union love so lusts
Take it away, so they, can only DREAM.
No other animal on earth
so hunted, haunted, “hell” and hopeless
“Cap the geysers! Heap sand upon the steam!”
of their natural spark, the pulse of love
life’s crowning joy
But they only get to feel it in a DREAM.
Bottle it up, repress it down
douse the birthright fires of passion.
“Block every prisoner’s natural flowing stream!”
(It’s natures way, expressing love
the highest height of all we have)
“So let them have it only in their DREAM!”
