Two Poems - Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven - Dada Centennial

No spinsterlollypop for me!
Yes! We have no bananas
I got lusting palate
I always eat them...
There's the vibrator
Coy flappertoy! ...
A dozen cocktails, please!

"Appaling Heart"

City stir——wind on eardrum——
dancewind : herbstained——
flowerstained——silken——rustling——
tripping——swishing——frolicking——
courtesing——careening——brushing——
flowing——lying down——bending——
teasing——kissing : treearms——grass——
limbs——lips.
City stir on eardrum—— .
In night lonely
peers—— :
moon——riding !
pale——with beauty aghast——
too exalted to share !
in space blue——rides she away from mine chest——
illumined strangely——
appalling sister !
Herbstained——flowerstained——
shellscented——seafaring——
foresthunting——junglewise——
desert gazing——
rides heart from chest——
lashing with beauty——
afleet——
across chimney——
tinfoil river——
to meet——
another’s dark heart——
Bless mine feet !
