Goldilocks


Goldilocks


an angel, who has disemboweled
his god,
now dines on the succulent innards.

Afterwards, much like the blue wolf,
he marks his territory
with two-thousand-tissue-thin years
of religious dogma.

In matters such as this,
being a simple man will not protect you
from a large, hungry bear
prowling your kitchen cupboards.
