Persistence of Vision on Behalf of the Famous Hysterical Bride

First let us acknowledge that these are bad words
Forbidden words
Seditious words
Hysterical vision and bride
Psychopathology originating in the uterus
Or of any other organ
Nevertheless hormones and such
Of any sex
Physical pain physical pleasure
Conducing to psychological effect
And who is to say

And in the second place vision
Along the line
That inveterate game of telephone
A neurological phenomenon
Impossible to pinpoint
Powerless to efface
The coordinates
That define
The advent of catastrophe
Rarely of blessing
Mostly catastrophe
And is it true that some authority must authorize
That definition
And who authorizes the authority

She was undressed by her suitors
Who identified themselves as such
Uncorroborated by the bride herself
Unasked whether she would endorse
This laudatory appellation
And afterward the suitor
I have suffered
Much later she says
I should have said
I should have said
