Eleutherios (the liberator)

Abbondanza, di Cesare Ripa, ca. 1600. Licença Wikimedia Commons.

Tear my silk, for it binds me tight
I shan’t resist, nor parade no fight
For you are my conscript, an endeared acolyte

Feast on the grapes, and Turkish delight
Feast on me: I am low-hanging, I’m ripe
The table is set, come have a bite

Ingest me by hand, devour me with sight
Our souls ablaze, our bodies alight
Rampant, savage, deliver your smite

One and sole, is my humble plight:
Regard no custom, just in spite
Desecrate me, my verdant blight
