Three poems from a series known as BROAD SONGS written by Audrey Hansen in NYC from July of 1964 through October 1965 |
"KNASHERAI" M is for mushroom; peyote is best O is the orifice-cache of the sexed T means to take-off; cosmology lose H Holy Havelock's sexiest news E 's for ether--the psychedelic gay R the religious roll in the hay If you'll observe When reconstructed All this spells "MOTHER" Posthumously fuckted Audrey Hansen 1965 |
"CHANGELING" This motherme adores your frail young body Of Palest ivory, I voraciously devour your very childness Full well I know that not fulfilled for long will be my greed The boy grows richly restless Dying, (ah, too soon), to lose his motherneed Foredoomed, lust clings to your small breast Stay nestling babe; yet be my own dear Motherfucker... Audrey Hansen NYC 1964 |
"LAMENT" Clothed, alas, by clods who lay me not nor down me neither I tender ask a sorted box of vulgar values: "Find me a waif of lust gone lush from non of savioring Salvation's tunnel tumbled not with hotwhose hands..." Cruel unfunning mocks the longmade beds Of lonely, unmade broads. Audrey Hansen NYC 1964 |
