Wipe-Out

beachcombers
with speedos so tight
the packages bulge impressively
with millennia sex art, breast and groin,
female pharoah and male sphinx in drag,
bronzed goddess and lipstick god cross-dressers
planting rusty crucifixes into the sand washed upon the
shore

seagulls pray
for a rest stop for
their old-israel ingrown
talons curled from inherited
ancient wars best erased, wrap
their bleeding unmanicured talons
around the crucifixes containing some
indication jesus introduced them to a game
of thrones

surfboard wielding
and armour for false
beards, hang ten surfing
and sand castle mortuaries
embalming casualties of the
wipe-out, circumcised gay sailors
kissing at full mast, the game of thrones
tattooed on erections worshiping crucifixes
as a new generation taking title of curators of
ancient art and interpretation of fine art - wipe-out!
