Nearsighted lady from Japan Come close, she’ll share her secret!
In her dark ghostly room
Her chamber of phantoms
It’s those dragons that want to devour you!

One is named It Is Wonderful
The other is named World Without End
The door to her secret is called
The Discovery of Adventure.

Nearsighted maid of Nippon
Softness and beauty, explosion of mind!
A fine spray of bliss
Delicate wave of heaven’s face
Woman’s peace lies beneath the rising sun.

 

 

Ken Shaddock - Baron Saturday and his consorts entertain the Petrified Bishop, 2007

deep night
a hidden chamber
secret
an attic still
to all without
within, the Duchess
her familiars to advise
spirits of lust
scatter and fly
conquest of desire
the Duchess
chants a forgotten Enochian invocation
to call forth to visible appearance
the lost member of Osiris

Darkness; figure of flesh flash from the darkness, from the pit, viscid eruptions spew from the darkness, a flurry of ropy matted hair, not-quite eyes and mouth engorged with slick as liquid erection, flicking from the darkness, spraying from the darkness, from the pit, thick glutinous explosions from the almost-eyes the great tubular worm ejected now from the smeary mouth shooting secretions from its viscous den to reveal to all who will stand witness and testify: the second mystery of flesh.

Ken Shaddock  - Extrusion

 

  

 

Ken Shaddock  Pearly Gate

Vision of pearls appear in the sky, temple of inflorescence in heaven, latent promise of revelation and pleasure; innocence and anticipation beckoned to fill the cup, manifest, complete, licentious salvation, lustful rapture, unnamed bliss of the damned.
