Pharisee, one set aside for devotion
by the Annals of Irony, cast aside the philistine the palestine by eurocentric confusion
to be cast out by the hapsburger
jews and gypsies; the cousins in France; a cycle of rejection unto Ellis Island, from tanners to doctors, from mezuzah to walkie-talkie; to the streets of bohemian Fransisco
to the dusky city by the shore, even in my home, the boy-god Gopal denied; his extramarital mystical charm a juxtaposed blight on the singing fools
By blood by covenant by idiosyncrasy; I'm the sweet-talking Mystic Gypsyjew of Bohemia in your daughters' beds; endemic in every corner and shuttered shopfront, a spit in the face of your prissy moral sobriety!
