All-embracing
Ideas that come from wombs which give them ears
Because these thoughts have listened well before
They speak, these hear the screaming in your tears
Before you feel them. If ideas have more
Than auricle and cartilage, the nerves
Inside the organ, linked to heart and brain,
If thoughts have eyes which help when soul observes
The cosmos, sight might obviate some pain
Before it tortures. Women know that love
Results in agony, that love of sex
In organs deep inside results in shove
Of lust and babies. Women want the hex.
The ears, the eyes, the searching organs in
Our hunches hug the will of God and sin.
