Virginal and pure
Skin soft and pliant and a scent of lilac and summer rain
Emanating from hot spots on her skin
Eyes reflecting light and moon and stars
Pools of quicksilver flashing and beckoning
Nose of perfection
Taking in the scents around her and classifying them
Lips of silk and sugar and a mouth spawning rivers and streams filled with plasma
Breasts bountiful, the standing nipples promising life for all hunger
They spew forth meat and corn and fish and soy and wheat and wine and quenching
Her stomach the mine of all of their envy, filled with diamonds and pearls and gold
Her center is the beginning Creation
Gentle folds that unfurl and furl, birth and life and beginning shining in the wet creases
Infant creatures appear and arrive and breathe and live
Her legs are mountains that touch the sun
The tribe trembles and shakes and fucks her
Each thrust sending nirvana in waves that they rise and fall upon
A feast of their senses and they take the love that is given freely
Again and again the bodies rise and fall
Gorging on the passion and green and endlessness of her heady embrace
Never enough to have enough they go and go and go and go and go
No pause for her breath to catch and return
Eyes spinning up in warning
Her love is free but finite in its physicality
She begs them to stop and wait and tread with gentle steps but now its rape
Her screams held back by hands heavy with money and guns
Television screens beam back the carnage to the lines of waiting sex that yearns to feed on her
She tries and tries to warn them
Ending the existence of
One life after another,
One plant after another
One precious stone after another and the rape continues
She tries to tell them that she is not fragile but not immortal
She shakes and coughs and cries
Her mouth is filled with their need though and they hear not a thing but the moans of their own
Ecstasy echoing in their ears as they feed and feed
Deeper they plunge into her, the tribe a whistling, spinning drill
Tearing the very core of her to pieces
Flung to the sides and tops and bottom she begins to bleed to death
Black oil from creatures past erupt in arterial gout and stain the sea
We drive and turn the music up in countless automobiles and watch the brain box and hope the President will fix this but
We are in this thing together and the sex is too good to stop.

Yes it’s about an oil spill…and more.
