a bio/eulogy

quaint old nancy

engaged in knissomancy

 

when she lusted after gnostic

unpredictable events

 

such as whether she could be

somehow deterred from

paying future rents

 

or if there was a chance she,

our quaint old nancy,

might be placed in danger

 

by a tippling manger.

 

another orphic oddity of hers

that in the telling blurs:

 

oft by christians charged with

aggravated minimifidianism,

 

she indulged ofttimes

in random acts of vandalism

 

and lusty cannibalism

 

and other biddy rites

of rampant symbolism.
