Queen
Laijon Liu 20240121
before you made your mother's womb chaotic and uninhabitable
you bored your head into her impenetrable wall and survived
and before that, your father
your so-called father drilled into her
like oil rig workers digging deep into the earth
before men could run their carts on battery or fossil fuel
they roped in the horses and cows to pull their carts
they loaded up their loots, their children and young women
and the men called themselves bosses and chieftains
trained their hounds, rounded up their slaves and stocks of trade
they sharpened their spears and daggers made out of antlers
they were ready anytime for their mating death match
their well dressed Queen sat in their center tent, like a giant pearl egg
shining in her holy glowing aura, that's the crown jewel.
