karate nuns in madras
a leap of faith
into the snarling madras night
karate nuns in madras
daughters & sisters
a lurking shadow’s nightmare sect
sororal floral saris hide
a vengeful knife
a sharpened crucifix
bared fangs for pathological
testicles
karate nuns break boards
with calloused hands
smash 100 lb slabs on 90 lb sisters
an ascetic niz-nil-limbo
cant be
wont be
touched
or raped again
plunging cruciknives
into unsuspecting scrotum
karate nuns
thrust the chop to crack
the male rib
jab the gouge to blind
the male gaze
karate nuns in madras
a mean mean sect
This is Fall at 3:33 p.m. on 11/21/20. Jamaica Plain, MA. (3/4)
“I only write when I’m inspired, so I see to it that I’m inspired every morning at nine o’clock.”
