Venus In Opposition
2002-12-06

he's got a liberal constituency,
speaks french with some sort of fluency,
says we've got a dynamic polity,
keen on bureaucratic transparency.

she says she digs the christian right,
she thinks they are just outta sight,
drinks beer, make it a miller lite,
convinced that the only right is might.

is it written in the stars,
a mercury conjunct sun;
got less to do with mars
than venus in opposition.

saturn and neptune in a trine,
jupiter retrograde;
just the two of them entwined
with venus in opposition.

she was magna at harvard law,
those shoes just might be prada,
wool spun from andean llama,
martinis straight up vodka.

he's got a prince albert, wanna see?
his back, an inkwork cacophony,
employed down at the brasserie,
funds his nascent artistry.

is it written in the stars,
a mercury conjunct sun;
got less to do with mars
than venus in opposition.

saturn and neptune in a trine,
jupiter retrograde;
just the two of them entwined
with venus in opposition.
