What is a Kahuna? And is it good to have a big one?

The Big Kahuna has spoken. He just sent me the "master defile"...his list of the poems he is planning to use for the twain Valentine's Day podcasts.

The Unicorns
The Patchwork Skirt of My Love
Monument
We Owe Debt to Memory
Love Gods of a Forgotten Religion
Sacred Smile
Tread Softly

Soubrette
A Kiss is an Act of Bravery

Track B: (I will wake you, tonight)

A Summoned Fire (Pink Jade)
Warm Breath Stirs Soft Flesh (Pink Jade)
Touch (Pink Jade)
Possession
Wine
Tracery (Pink Jade)
Jasmine and Plumeria (Pink Jade)
I Will Wake You, Tonight
The Satyr's Suit
How Would You Have Me Touch You?

And, while I am here, let's add his footnote...he asked me to do a breakdown on his classic work "Brisant Revelations".

The poem was written in Los Angeles, as a sacred oath to remain faithful to his second wife. As poetry is his religion, I'm starting to understand the stresses pulling on him at this point as he preapres to finally "let go". Here's the poem...

Brisant Revelations

expect the apocalypse
if a vow as sacred as I have taken
should prove
mutable in the wills
and winds
and currents of the human heart,
stolen from the fires of a Promethian glory
unshackled to the punishing stone
to atone for the arrogance of hope
and love
and empowering the juggernaut.
actions refracted in colours of a spectrum
that runs not from red to violet
but from osmium to radium
through silver and platinum and gold and rhodium
polished to a rosary of alpha particles
striking ghostly glowing receptors
in a flint and steel approach to making
nuclear fusion of lovers' sweat.
breaking down the waters
to make hydrogen and oxygen,
breathing in the latter
and fusing the former
in a thermonuclear glory
that rises like the sun in a heart
finally released like Glatisant
to stalk the legends of a lost mythology.
where the Gods walk only in tandem.
as it should be.

Hey, BK (Big Kahuna) remember what Robin Williams said: "Sometimes you feel like a squirrel over the Grand Canyon - give up the nuts or die."
