The Language Of Bulls

By Christina Strigas
the language of bulls

Illustration by Damehi Laloo

It is the crashing classical story, 

Roaring rise and feathery fall 

How knots and cash 

Blur rippled lines, 

Turn dreams into scheming plots, 

Into sandy abrasive buildings 

From minuscule ideas in garages 

To New York City glam. 

It is how men have too much testosterone 

Acidic tempting need 

To overcome their debauchery, 

Float and croon above the water: 

Clash, chuckle, snort 

The bills away, 

Sizzle, slurp, howl 

The night away, 

Blare, hoot, whistle 

The day away. 

Women are objects full of exotic flavour 

To slam, pop, rattle 

Their lives away. 

It’s the woven plots 

Of how man meets the green 

Floats and drowns in it. 

Classic, tragic, magic 

The fantasy away. We all know the exit 

With no money, no women, no erection, 

Yet in those tantalizing shades 

One can see how many women 

Grew balls, found freedom, paid rent, 

Sizzled in power 

Before the handcuffs 

Touched the perfume 

On their wrists.
