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
