I was born Naked Into the world Covered With the shroud of Lilith That some would say portend Portent I’ve lived my life As if in amniotic swim Safely Ensconced in the innocence Of ignorance And even now I wear the gossamer veil That obscures my vision As well as my visage So, I fear That I will die Naked Without the cauling Without a calling |

Live and let die, without givng into the fear. You are going deeper still with every twist into your mind. Leaves me pondering the wonder of it all! Nice one swift~ |

You do not need eyes to see--you see with your heart, your mind and your poet's soul. If you desireth the caul to be lifted, I shall do so with wave of my wand... Perchance the cauling truly is the portent of your calling... From beyond the beyond of which you know so well, EA |

Sometimes we have a calling we are unaware of. hmmm... Sometimes? smile. USUALLY, unaware. As you know, Lilith is one of my favorite topics--but? we'll talk when ya have the time. Hugs m'yeti monk. You are a wonder. |

I have never found you in the embrace of ignorance... wise, yes... knowledgeable...most assuredly... a mentor? Absolutely. |

wranx And even now I wear the gossamer veil That obscures my vision As well as my visage It seems to me you see much better then most, both inside yourself and out. [This message has been edited by Martie (05-21-2003 10:45 PM).] |
