The would-be
secessionist from Israel’s etiquette
(shielding pliant Jewesses from shame
less glances
And the giving
of just percentages
to matrimonial intermediaries)
is spiritually intrigued
by die Anglo-Saxon phenomenon
of Virginity
delightfully
on its own defensive!
This pouting
pearl beyond price
flouting
the male pretentions
to its impervious surface
Alice the gentile
Exodus the jew
after a few
feverish tiffs
and reparations
chiefly conveyed in exclamations
- - a means of expression
modified by lack of experience -
unite their variance
in marriage
Exodus
Oriental
mad to melt
with something softer than himself
clasps with soothing pledges
his wild rose of the hedges
While she
expecting
