A Use of History
In response, the women
assumed the names of
Victorian whores.
Foul-Mouthed Felicia
did the talking, and
Spread-Legs Shirl chaired.
Clergy counseled patience,
then biblical brutality as Shirl
lived up to her name.
The men disparaged the cloth,
opting for a quick settlement.
They capitulated on major points.
The women felt free, then, in
victory, to revert to comfortable roles.
All-enveloping sweet Motherhood.
Terribly fashionable Garden Partying
with dresses and heels, of course.
And pearls!
Don't forget them.
Jumbos now.

Why Republicans Love Rural Places
The women too crushed
to be coy.
The men devoured
by opiods.
The clergy rushing bib-
lical tricks
to line both up
come election time.
And everyone knows how
to fish.

Losing to Faith
Intos
Though Luke’s parents pounded it into
his head from Toddlerhood, finally asked
“Which one is HE?”
They signed him into St Teresa’s, and Most
Reverend Markham, MD, deposited him into
the “Jesus Ward.”
A joke to the nurses, but true enough.

The Future of Sex
Estelle-7 and Mona-4 couldn't stop
quarreling. Their human husbands
kept them apart, so the insults sped
electronically.
All to the effect of sex: which robot had
the techniques that madden thoroughly?
Insuring wondrous ecstasy! Uh huh?
The Robot World specialized in hyperbole.
And when the husbands didn't really seem
to care about the fighting, the state butted in.
The men ordered to sell the robots.
And take on Dorotheas. These models
discussed history and literature.
And joined civic groups.
Robot Resale handled the auction.
Winner of both: Rev Cotton Mather--
yes a descendent, but no fire-breather.
A temperate clergyman, though giddy
notes started creeping into his sermons.

The American Dream
is easy! Not rough
to understand--
a kind of thrill.
Rich tell you what
it is, and politicians
follow suit, boots
strapped up and
pockets stuffed.
Clergy approve,
but only with
the codicil of
pie in the sky
bye and bye.
