I Live I Die I Burn I Drown
I live, I die, I burn, I drown
I endure at once chill and cold
Life is at once too soft and too hard
I have sore troubles mingled with joys
Suddenly I laugh and at the same time cry
And in pleasure many a grief endure
My happiness wanes and yet it lasts unchanged
All at once I dry up and grow green
Thus I suffer love’s inconstancies
And when I think the pain is most intense
Without thinking, it is gone again.
Then when I feel my joys certain
And my hour of greatest delight arrived
I find my pain beginning all over once again.

A Special Love
How can I compare your beauty
to other faces?
You seduce me in the sunshine
unashamedly, knowing I cannot look away.
My soul cries out more, more,
and again I search your dark eyes
until I'm strapped in a trance like state.
You proceed to tease
my lips with your tongue delegating my mind
to your ocean, where I glide above the
surface gushing with exhilaration.
Your bouquet fills my face and body
projecting me to hovering heights
that have my heart
racing as if in a lover's embrace.
Yet, you free me
to further savour your endless delights,
till I cannot get enough,
and consume you like an army
of leaf ants would ravage to build their home.
Just as I can feel the slip into the next dimension,
a painless place free of blame,
I open my eyes and you sit there waiting.
Gee I love Mudcake.
Fear Not
There are many
Phobias and fears
Causing consternation
Jitters or tears
Like agoraphobia
Fear of open spaces
Parks and fields
And public places
They are by definition
Irrational by nature
Fear of things
Causing discomfiture
Angora phobia is
If I know no better
The irrational fear
Of a Mohair sweater
