Ann Guerra Poems

I enjoy pickles,
and I also want world peace.
These facts are each true.
But I am neither pregnant,
...

Five Rings, the Book of Solomon,
even the Kama Sutra,
I devoured them all
in pursuit of wisdom,
...

Too many sneered when
I talked about communism,
so now I'm a socialist.
In a world filled with isms,
...

Our Robert Johnson
knew about Medusa love,
a strike you stone dead,
tangle you in snakes passion—
...

Two prophets shook dice,
pulled levers,
and muttered incantations.
But rust gummed up the works,
...

Your sari tripped you.
It shames me, but I giggled.
You would teach me grace?
Later we became lovers,
...
