Hankerings

These savage impulses I have long suffered
This stuffing of lustful desires

Vexations of loins,
damn be my britches.

Vexation of loins,
damn be all brass which snap open at night.

I know, I know,
say no more.

Try preaching restraint to hornets in season
or to crocks in heat, or to leaping salmon.

Liberation does not come easy
