Herbert Nehrlich 2 - I........................

I................

the one who did
and who forever will
dumb down the folks
and stroke his ego's will,
I Iet you flatter me,
within the flesh
and of its graying tweed
a taste of mesh.

I'd let you touch my skin,
though ill-conceived,
I'd venture deep within
until relieved
of burdens humanoid
so obsolete
squirt white into the void
and squeeze the teat.

I..........................

the one whose soul succumbed,
only per chance
whose hemispheres were numbed
who'd do the dance.
He never learned to let
all spirits fly
on drafts of etiquette
and kumquat pie.
