Ninth Transit of Venus


This tortured night a millstone moon grinds out
one trillion stars upon oblivion;
through their dim dust daredevil you dive deep
into whatever cruel torture hugs
your passion of the moment shattering
this puppy slave to cherish crazy joy
and longing for your venomous return
hotheaded body panting for relief
by mistress dripping cool eternity.

cherish, crazy, cruel, daredevil, eternity, hotheaded, hugs, joy, millstone, moon, oblivion, passion, puppy, shattering, slave, torture, venomous

bonus poem:  transpose "oblivion" and "eternity"
