Dogcatcher


NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                                        (howls of rage at moon's reflective
                                                                               glare)
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                                      (a dogcatcher swathed in velvet and
                                                                           silver)     
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                                     (whore in white starch knifes whore
                                                                        in stilettoes; )
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                                 (she's buried somewhere near the  
                                                                      edge of page 11. an 8 lined
                                                                           paragraph.)
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                              (just the ones in the streets who are self-
                                                                aware; the rest all think the game brings
                                                                   them theirs.)(someday.)
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                         (the dogs lap at poisoned meat in the alley,
                                                              the crustaceans yearn to crawl back to
                                                                  the sea.)
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                            (dogcatcher licks hisher lips in anticipation
                                                                 clutching a blinding veil a snare)
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                               (or even if they are, the populus too
                                                                  ensnared can't remember how to see
                                                                       it. )
NOT ALL WHORES ARE SACRED ANYMORE
                                                            (Dogcatcher-saboteur to memories of this
                                                                  way)
