The Annual Banquet



On the left of the altar sit four nude mothers,
breastfeeding their babies, three males and one female.
On the right, the Pope sits alone
He is clothed in black and wears a mask,
one side representing the half-face of Karol Wojtyla
and the other side, the half-face of Leonardo da Vinci.

Before the standing figures, a congregant moves
slowly and continuously across the altar from the right to the left
carrying idols, crucifixes, umbrellas to shield from the 
blood-rain lightning conductors, bull horns, dildos and dummies.

Throughout the scenes they are heard from outside.
The steady beats of drums, the bellowing of bulls,
the howling of wolves, the hooting of owls,
the hissing of snakes, the barking of dogs,
the soft sweet moans of women being laid and perhaps,
the snoring of men.

Just as Luci enters in a solo procession,
dark lights begin to shine dark with
sounds of mystical, esoteric songs.
Amid thick smoke-clouds of Indian hemp.

For the reaction of the congregants to his appearance,
the word 'worship', is not too strong to apply.

His gothic face is full of blushes, as he brushes
Away a strand of hair from his left eye
This caused strand falls back on his right eye.
Luci angrily splits the hair into two,
both turning into hydrae of the color blue.

Luci takes his seat for the Dark Mass to proceed
but sorry, the scene gets more gory and you might worry.

I never meant to leave you half way wondering
but I presume you know how The Mass is usually
and orderly boring.
So I just had to lead you into conceiving Demons!
