anathema
they call me the queen
of the midwinter heavens
i am no queen
not even a pretender to this throne
the crown doesn't fit
and it's far too heavy
i pawned the scepter
for a quill and ink
and threw the orb out the window
most likely sending some trashman
into paroxysms of orgasmic delight
diplomacy and protocol
have never been my strong suits
and sharing the sky
with so many other queens
was a royal pain in the ass
(confidentially
the queen of midsummer
is a bitch on wheels
so full of herself
i used to call her
her blondeness behind her back)
besides there are no kings
i have no desire to be a virgin queen
and princes!
well they're nothing
but spoiled brats
jaded wastrels whiling away the time
between now and the throne
that isn't coming
by overindulging in many
of the more loathsome of the
seven deadly sins
nope
i have no desire to be a queen
i am meant for plain living
and high thinking
and the earthy grime
of the battles of the everyday
in blue jeans with no crown
to slow me down
you may adore me (if you wish)
but only as a lover
not some cold sovereign goddess
all the hail the empty throne
and the chaos in the cosmos
as the february stars
whirl off their courses
as i sit below and laugh
in my unlovely hovel
ringing bell
reading book
burning candle
having fashioned my own
handbasket in which to go to hell
