The Abominations of Yoni
By Frederick J. Mayer
21st CenturyDedicated to Clark Ashton Smith
Virgin dream in your rawed mind's matter
grows till it is a brain's flawed jewel,
a still-born wisdom's pearl -
The Dreamer's nightmare.
Seamaid revealed to mind's distilled
psyche --
In that ceaseless dark dream
coming-to-be,
(below erotic gray sea within an open
skull
anemone)
a monster-woman of fin-de-siecle.
The White sea stallion leads from
aquarian sources
in dolphin delirium depths,
the black mares of midnight
(sensuous seafillies within dolpinish
soft hides)
who provide rides to the Vale of Oceans,
through exotic seas filled with tears
of the veil,
blowholes aflare.
Hot night-rider Dako
harasses dream-sleeper in Ophannim's
grotto
with thoughts of dry Yondo and her coming dark yoni.
Mahadevi's aqua virgin whore
was accepted to mind's sea shore,
but to know her showed her to be
Chinnamasta - La Femme sans Tete.
Succubus' deflowering by sleep-swimmer
brings
Lucille of the Sea with Demon notions,
and on another side of dream - She
drained dreamer's frail frame
of vivid fluid for Id of: Lucifer's twin
fair.
Dreamer given les tetins de nid aux
serpents
and dropped within the "good sleep" -
while his body foaming in the heat
is white of waves crescendo.
The dream-walker is misanthropic lover
now.
