White dress
white cake
white people
surrender to social
“norms”
“norms” slither like rotten
worms through
white cake
creating tunnels to
loveless
bites of
artificial sugar
my sister, “the prude”
stands with me, “the slut”
introduced
shake heads at
shake hands with
“your new dad”
His white body stands
atop the white
cake
next to the white dressed
Monster
her claws sunk deep into
his spine
vows were stolen from
Once Upon A Time
a normal dance
a normal kiss
family glides in
out
Congratulations!
An artificial prude
a drunken slut
remain –
photographer is
late
a successful wedding night
later
white
man atop the cake
is stripped of a healthy spine –
collapses under
a perverse
white Monster,
his wife

Missed you. Strobes are killing me. Probes don’t help.
Decided to start by “divorcing your voice” of words. Conversation starter. Over 1/3 gone.

Your re-vamped version of my poem shouldn’t be better than mine!! 😉 j/k. I am thoroughly amused by the re-write!! Definitely what I like to read!
I’m glad it had a happy ending.
For him not for me because she was fat.
Fat is where it’s at.
Any cool cat got that.
Mounds of under-fur
filled with human fed food
and years of happy in-active
in lap sats.
Dog’s life?
Not really.
Cat is where it’s at.
Powerful piece

This was great! Reminded me of my dad’s wedding to Miss Piggy! That is what my son said she looked like and I must say he was right. Emerald green taffeta dress with ruffles. No kidding.
Wow…That’s a wedding dress to not be forgotten!
Frightening! Yet all too often true. The poor prude and the poor slut does anyone ever care for them? …I do. xx
Phew! You make me shudder MM…
power, word after word . I am a fan. 🙂
I like this
I love the line about the cake…..made me think about all the artificial food we put into our bodies, while we are desperately trying to “keep it real”! LOL
