OMFG
A free verse poem, somewhat Charles Bukowski style — on love, raw and all-conquering 🖤🦇🖤

I’m a strong woman
But I finally embrace and welcome,
Need, — and desire
Masculine energy.
Goddess incarnate,
I can and will
Go down on my knees
Before my God,
For you-know-what.
He may or may not be horned —
But he is horny,
Because this is sacred,
And whoever mocks it
May go fuck themselves.
So many times
I was deluded, disappointed
By men profaning
Their true manhood,
That I had little idea
Of the great archetype,
The one whose embodiment
My soul craves
Through each cell of my body
That I learned to hate,
Like most women do.
I dismissed Him as unattainable Dream,
But so-called reality...
Ahem... made me wonder.
I’ve been reclaiming
My own profaned womanhood,
Learning to love parts of Self
I’ve been running away from
In utter horror:
Too much pain there,
Generational curse,
Cast by lack of love.
Voices of Mermen
Sang me back
Into darkest corners of Self,
Dusty, clothed in old cobwebs —
And, as I feared,
Batshit crazy.
But the sound is light
Bats are able to see;
Awakened with gentleness,
They greeted the Flying Fox
In me.
I entered my womb-space:
The useless, the burden,
The ultimate scare,
The black hole,
The place of despair.
Led by voices of men
In touch with their Anima,
Pouring light in acoustic waves
For the frightened Foxy — to see
What they need the most,
What they long for...
Something I was meant to give them.
(But can I still?)
I saw a spacious room,
A mini-concert hall,
With walls painted
In magenta, indigo, purple
Mint-green and soft pink,
With a touch of gold.
I saw a stage
And people with children
Engaged in playing.
This room was deep down,
With a long staircase
Leading to it,
Painted in the darkest aubergine.
Such was my Dream.
Through this vision
And, you guessed it — sound
I’m connecting to my Animus
And reaching out
To the real men out there.
Be that God incarnate!
Step up to protect me —
And, by golly,
Kick ass for me.
Be wild. Be passionate.
And NEVER stoop
To arguing with a woman.
Because, you know it —
She is right.
If you don’t understand
I can’t explain it to you.
Give all of yourself.
Die in me to come alive...
I can’t explain it either,
And I shouldn’t.
Do your own homework.
Please.
And then go down on your knees
For you-know-what.
