I am new to critiques. I do not have anything negative to say. I enjoyed the line “Quit my day job for a pun that could shadow the sun.”
Quit my day job for a pun that could shadow the sun.
Illuminated through moonshine, I’m enlightened with blood-wine.
Intoxicating every cell.
My mother taught me well, so I rebel.
A pupil of the Earth, I die late at my birth.
As night falls to intoxicate my eyes, morning comes with the sun between her thighs.
Mother Earth, Goddess, Gaia; no need to ask “Mother Maya.”
It’s mine for the taking, pull the grape from the vine as my blood becomes wine.
Eat the flesh of this fruit; I’m a vessel, I transmute.
Body becomes bread, blood becomes wine; the goblet my head.
