Porcelana Princess
reclines on rug remnant
in dime store bauble barge
so much for eminent
boatman poles the tune
of byzantine dreams
up dirty old man river
not so romantic, it seems
Vaping Waffle Crisp
he takes in the scene
in Vivienne Westwood suit
offers hit to the queen
Times are pretty bad when
slaves dress better than She
Pharoah's budget cuts
leave only old jalopy
former litter bearers
in loud check sports coats
wheel and deal barges at
"Honest Ahmed's Used Boats"
blank are the kohl eyes
of Nile's favored one
wearing purple Converse
hair dyed Luxor Sun
her Froot-Loop necklace
and recycled paper gown
her cat dons the ermine
heavy the head within crown
panting in bargain barge
in blazing river heat
under lapis lazuli sky
flaps her sales receipt
where's the damn slave
to fan me on the Nile
she now runs a cab stand
of taxi crocodile
perhaps, you, garcon
boatman man the fan
couldn't possible says he
I might ruin my tan
what's a girl to do
well that sucks, ho hum
leans back on rug scrap
cracks her bubble gum
how boring to be a god
and worse nouveaux riche
this cash strapped deity
is one hot irritable bitch
I'd fan my own fan
if only I knew the way
they don't teach these things
to the Daughter of the Day
I'm useless it appears
with nothing else to do
and all day long to do it
can I trade places with you?
