Calmest Sex Electrified
The firefly
Gives light
To its pursuer.
~ Ōemaru
Enlightenment it might be, no, not
Satori. Certainly this winging bug
Is only looking coolly for a hot
Encounter with a lady fly, to hug
Her briefly, hunchingly, and put slick life
Inside her. Probably that’s it. But is
That all? He wants a little-seconds wife,
A lucky lady to receive his jizz,
Yet if a Buddhist sees the light he sends
Out in a sacred way, a breakthrough might
Occur, a sudden holiness that blends
With buggy semen in their twelve-legs night.
Twelve legs, and wings, and zooming sex, and love
Hint revelation hovering above.
~ Phillip Whidden
