Pulpit Dweller by Max BouilletPot bellied and
ripe with wine and God
the pulpit dweller
deftly deals the holy hors doeuvres.
Probing pudgy fingers

to flickering tongues
fresh from brags

The nocturnal stain glass smash
discharges the licks of a thousand
cocottes suckling his
fingers for the gist God. 06/22/2003 Posted on 06/23/2003 Copyright © 2024 Max Bouillet
