[saadat]

(Dedicated to Riane Eisler … an illustrious writer)

Sainthood throw;
bombast some blow.
Afire.
Desire,
Nip,
rip.
Carmine bows,
Fluttering vows.
Arrows askance,
or romance.
Tongued,…speak!
yet seek.
Luscious aglow,
carry in tow.
The possibilities.
Responsibilities.
A peep a peer,
while angels sneer.
Frenetically nay scuttle.
Fear not rebuttal.
Boundless lure,
Insecure,
Smite,
without respite.
emptiness...vast,
shadows cast,
deep within,
and far therein.
Amuse…fun.
Confuse…done.
Chalice and blade.
Desert glade.
