Ode to the pig

As titles go

By M.Published 2 years ago • 1 min read

Spare me, Circe, your useless spells

revealing the hidden truths

there's no redemption in the trough

testing with a forked tongue

beyond good and evil

what only your tears can give me

We'll train our daughters to hate us

Humbert Humbert

but we love young skin
