THE ORDER OF THE BLUE ROSE
(A True Tale From The Castro. Eat your heart out, Armistead!)
©1998 by Ezekiel Krahlin
petals twisted around themselves
tremble to surrender to the world
a glory to be witnessed
beneath the brilliant sun
my heart is a blue rose
the chain of command
the chain of heartbreak
the rosey chain
radiates from my heart
chakra lotus blossom
4th seal of the apocalypse
spreads over eureka valley s.f.
petals tossed into a concrete pond
ripple outward
and beyond
as i fall into the arms of the
new marines soldiers of the pink triangle
army of lovers invincible
stand before the world
and the world trembles: thracians!
same sex paramours
militias skilled in the art of love
physical beauty and stamina:
all weapons to win
the heart of the enemy
to our side
or perish
provocateurs of seduction shall throw down
the garters of all governments
and the whores of cold cash
these are the thracians
and the innermost circle:
the order of the blue rose
sudden death to you who scorn
any one of my beloved warriors
let this be commandment 11
legions of unicorns and winged horses
stand ready for battle
to serve as warrior steeds
the moment i give the signal
a blue rose in the window
