The Lion and the worm. (Free verse) by <{Baba^Yaga}>
So this guy gets a phone call and goes down to
the beach. Finds a young man that wants to go
to school. They know one another from the past.
They share a mother. He invites the
young man, and his mother into his home.
Puts the young man into school, and
shares his world and mind with them.
The mother, originally says,
"She's leaving for Florida to live with
a huge dicked drug smuggling Colombian"
The man shakes his head, and says,
"Well you should leave your son here to
finish his education, it's the selfless
thing to do, so you don't have to subject
the boy to a life time of chasing after
your phantoms, with you". She agrees, and
even signs a 'handwritten' document
granting power of attorney to the man
which he copies and files.
Some time passes by, and the mother is
still there? What happened to a couple of weeks?
She's even moved from the guesthouse, up to
the couch in front of the man's desk in the
front house? That's weird, he thinks, not
to mention that's where he likes to relax.
When he takes a break from work, or is tired
late in the evening, and wants to watch tv.
The young man however is making friends,
and doing good in school. He's even gotten
a job working for a movie producer, and
started to make some money. So the man lets
it go on, thinking it's best for the young man.
But the mother has better things in store for everyone.
She's not happy with the way things are going:
For one, she's a nymphomaniac and needs to suck
cock, or fuck, at least twice a day.
Secondly, booze, the pills, she needs lots of pills.
Thirdly, She needs to control the room and everyone.
She needs to get the wife out of the picture.
Then she needs to get the young man out of the
equation. Then she needs to violate all taboos,
and consecrate her own selfish agenda with another baby.
Never satisfied, and horribly jealous and psychotic.
She begins weaving her dirty work. Whispering
in everyone's ears. Turning everyone against
the other. First, she takes out God's wife
(the man's friend, and son's godmother).
Then she takes out anyone else in the man's
world that she perceives as being Matriarch figures.
Then she takes out the Man's father, and brother.
Then she takes out the man's friends, and peers.
Then she starts to take out the man's wife, but
the wife's spirit fights back and gets pregnant,
subconsciously, so then the older woman does the same!
The man watches all of this in horror, as God
and the Devil play out the board.
He has no choice, and worse yet is sick of playing.
He decides to abandon the board and the game entirely.
Realizing, finally, that the old mother and young man
are too far beyond his help, and maybe he had set
out in the beginning to help himself by helping
the young man anyway. Fixing the boy in him too.
That's the way a lion's heart pumps,
but the worm has a tiny heart that's replaceable.
An interesting fact most overlook because worms
are so uninterestingly tiny minded and slimy.
They live their lives on the hook,
and work only for fertilizer.
The man sees it coming, but doesn't want to believe
it. He wants to give her the benefit of the doubt.
But she has other things in mind. She always has
lots of other things in mind. He sees the moment
he missed to keep it all from happening. A dinner,
early on in the game. He invited his parents over
to his house. For everyone to be together for the
first time in his life. Him, his young family, his
mother, brother, and father, all together. But what
occurred was the most viciously pointless display
of wickedness any of them had ever witnessed. The
mother exposed a part of the darkness within her,
and all saw the demon for what it was. Scared,
desperate, and utterly chaotic. Turning the dinner
into a charade, and a spectacle of contempt and filth.
The man outraged that these 'guests' would have
the gal to bring this abomination into his young
family's home. Throws everyone out, and good riddance.
But the mother comes crawling and begging for help,
and forgiveness. The man takes pity on her wretched
existence, and grants her sanctuary, again.
Knowing, that it's in the cards, and the nature of
the beast that she'll do it again.
But next time, he'd be ready.
And he was, and she did just that.
Over and over again until the day she died.
This time however, the worm came out to
early. The worm misjudged the rain and dried away.
The lion yawned, pissed on it's tree,
and took a shit in reply to the worms charge.
This is a true story, and pulled off by professionals.
This should in no way be attempted by an amateur.
And now, for a quote from the bible.
And he cried mightily with a loud voice,
saying, "Babylon the great is fallen, fallen,
and has become a dwelling place for demons, a
prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for
every unclean and hated bird."
And I heard another voice say from heaven,
"Come out of her my people, lest you share in
her sins, and recieve of her plagues. For her
sins have reached heaven, and God has remembered
her iniquities".
Mother, I came out of you, and I will stay out.
