Arrested in jest ---

A joke of solid ivory!

A token of the fools we dulled
with fevered clemency!

Wary of their simple spoils
we shot cold nudity at their garish gaze!

Without instilling senses
that were one fall from disaster.

INSTEAD we bought their mind's whores
with asides guilty of their own affections-
indented on nightmares curdled from acid passions
spelt in God's name(sake)-
sickened by their only spirit's sultry sorrows
