“What would a man not give to engage in conversation with Orpheus?” ~ Plato

That marble minded Plato thinks of men,

Not women, girls, or boys before they grow

Their body hair in armpit, crotch, and then

The beard.  His brain was right since women glow

With threat and pain for Orpheus.  They tear

Him into pieces, cannibals of verse,

And song, and sex with beautiful young flare

Of manly parts.  His wife was even worse.

Eurydice abandoned him across the Styx

Where lyrics, potency of maleness, harp

And grief are pale.  She was his crucifix.

He knew a wife’s and women’s loves are sharp.

..So Plato knew the universe’s laws.

….The singer should seek males, not women’s claws.
