ABSENTIA
                                                  by

                                    Vernon J. Davis Jr.

 

 

                                     My name is ABSENTIA

                                     but, I'm not absent.

                                     However, no one seems

                                     to see or hear me. 

                                     But I'm everywhere.

                                     But, to you all

                                     I'm nowhere.

                                     A nothing woman

                                     satisfying your perverted dreams.

                                     When you need me,

                                      then you see me.

                                      But only with your polluted vision of 

                                      My Eternal Black Beauty,

                                      exploited for your lustful

                                      gain of pleasure,

                                      your manipilative pursuit of

                                      My Greatness,

                                      which you are afraid of.

                                      My name is ABESENTIA

                                      but, I'm not absent.

                                      You will see Me,

                                       but,  properly.

                                      And you will definitely hear me

                                      Roar.

                                      My name is ABSENTIA

                                      and

                                      I am not!...

 

                                      Absent.
