"The artists stroke and slap at matter,

Sensitively, like lovers around a clitoris

Of the supreme Bitch Goddess, Beauty.

She, locked in passion

With the upright lingham of truth,

Licks and slowly writes, coaxing

Fountains of streaming ejaculated bliss

To impregnate her ecstatic devotees

With the flaming semen of good vision.

Embryonic artworks grow

In the womb heart of the artists,

Until the fever of making seizes their limbs,

And they deliver their art through labors of love.

Fresh art, still warm from creative birth,

Enters new eyes, awakening medicinal soul resonance.

The artists, never resting.

Follow after the undulating Bitch Goddess,

Ever slipping away until they clutch her.

Arousing her passion, they open their hearts,

Awaiting the next divine conception."

-Alex Grey, Bitch Goddess Beauty
