The Hedonist

I am a flagrant hedonist
Each path I find some pleasures twist
But pleasure is rhetoric friend
Each human speaks a different wend

I satisfy my mental urge
Where others see but human scourge
Each flower that has lost desire
I sprinkle with a kind admire

Light a light of candlelight
To stay the darkness of the night
Till its soil a gestures toll
Breathe a breath of soul to soul

It takes a pinch of brine of sea
To stir the embers of the we
And lo my pleasures smile each day
That lights the pleasure of my way

I am hedonist through and through
The mask is up to you to view

Well, m'friend,
if you HAVE to be a hedonist...
seems to me, we're mighty blessed!

I like this Sunday's mask, Sy!

Mr. T., you are multi-faceted and I find you extremely fascinating! A walking contradiction!

I like this earthy side of you as well!

Love & Crimson Light,

JM,
Why deny this life of awe
Do you think we'll be back for more?
Perhaps a gene will find its way
But that has naught to do this day


Earth Angel
Yes the pot comes with two sides
The cooking and the content side.
