ROUND & BROWN
                                     A Poem
                              By Phineas Altenzauber

          Penthouse perfection:  round & brown; revolution & chocolate
          Night Thighs, Perfect 10
          The Alien WoMan; the Alien God
          The Temple is desolate
          The Whore has been sacrificed
          The Virgin has not conceived
          But God is the reincarnation of Zarathustra
          Or so the WoMen said when they came to this desolate place
          A star system at the fringes of the Galactic Core
          The old rites still prevailed here
          & the Missionaries were powerless to stop them
          But Christianity has been absorbed by Hinduism
          & Hinduism mutated
          & the Priests of a decadent religion
          Watch helplessly as the Sacrifices proceed
          Comes the Night, we try to Die
