YIN + YANG

YIN + YANG.


Shouts like yobs, tattoos gross
Rolls of belly like lard falling out
Boozy, such pushy sexy, hairy, smelly
Or deliberately prim, glaring; in bowler and suit
Or from out a black burka, evil tramps.
Nasty things have women become-
Take your freedom! But they take the wrong one!

Look how they take sex! sweaty, chesty,
Scratchy and slappy and banging on top
Or buggering about with the doorknobs...
This is not passion, not ardent they;
Nothing like that is love done to a man
The men pretend hugely
That they're not being sick below stairs...

Puzzled, I ask the Universe
Hey what gives? What's wrong
With these heart-shattering drabs?
And that Great Sigil, the yin and the yang, slowly appears...
See its a circle containing two blobs?
The white the oppressor of the dark-
Yet both contain a core of the other
Pondering I see it spin
Slowly, gently; now one atop, now the other-
Finally I see it with a great laugh of truth
IT IS AN EGG!
IT IS THE UNIVERSE!
O IT IS THE LAW!
They are tiny embryos swimming
Close lovers in their prison
But it is their egg from which they shall hatch
And lo! it seems huge
For once upon a time i have come and asked...

And they changing, cease to fight for space
But step out, free them both or neither
The male o! what a beauty! The female, o! what a beauty!
Their arms linked, their hair scattered with stars
Tall, sweet, brilliant and smiling
The man, courage, genius, skill, o beautiful sex!!
HE IS VITAL!
The woman, gentle, merciful, full of concepts, o beautiful sex!!
SHE IS CRUCIAL!
And they are gleaming, gorgeous, fragrant...
These the gods, do they kick?
No, twin pillars of life and mind are they..
Look! the gods, male and female - why..
They smile and they kiss....
