Mother Mary Damnable

the kind of man
a bath won't clean
leaderless scorpion
minus the sting gutless
drifter selling psalm water
across the desert at a time jesus
could care less and mary mother damnable
at the whorehouse earned her moniker her profane
vocabulary and fiery temper put an end to his fraud

her pre-fab building
sturdier than the drifter's
fabricated lies milled clapboard sides
brought by ship captain felker of the brig
franklin adams

mother damnable's
rivaled whorehouses
far and spread wide of
the other madams

mother damnable's
salty language learned at sea
drifter made the mistake of asking
for a receipt his balls nailed to the
cross in the church for all to see the
pedo was on file and his member in formaldehyde
at the bottom of a jar labeled dirty meat stuffed inside
his rectum floating on a turkey wing
