The prophet of soul slinks stealthily slow
through all of the questions and queries
and I see her there dressed black head to toe
like the shadow she is if the truth be known.

But a raving beauty when stripped of my flesh
and an angel refined mentally
has plotted and planned an agenda
before I even thought about life.

Envious?  No!  It’s the knowing, you see,
that she loves her lover with spiritual feel
intense and alive to all the beauty inside
reserved for only her eyes and mine.

And to stress and plead for relief
like begging the sky please to leave
for never a love sent from above
lies as if dead in the dust.

Lust?  She lusts for complete ecstasy
and the fulsome sense of his eyes
watching the play and interplay
of God’s given gift of life bodies.

But he, that he, too good for her/me
believes shadows belong over there
in a next life when the timing is right
but there’s a catch to all this, you see,
because no one waits at the pearly gates
when rebuffed as a shadow unreal.

True or false?  I really can’t say!
There are stories and fables and dreams
woven within the fabric of life
to keep one forever bemused
and that prophet of soul could only be need
instilled as a reason for being.

I’m taking the road, the in-between road,
because always a fortune of knowledge
will one day enrich the needy
but need is a way of keeping in play
something meant for some other day
and if it’s dispatched as garbage bin trash,
not now or ever can it ever be.

So sighs an angel refined mentally
but the tears that I cry are mine!

Whether I be wise or a woman woe betide is open for debate.

Thanks for your kind comment.
