Gothic Grace -


She had a gothic heart,
predictability and tamming tranquility were her counterparts,
she felt pain as gain,

peace was nettlesome and purposeless,
an abomination that careless civilization is undeserving of,
life is best consumed in confrontation,

within her magnificent mind God's value gravitated toward the power of volatility,
instability as instinct,
truth is permenance in transition,
Victoria believed that divinity as a mystery unsolved is more exhilerating
than explication or epiphany leading to the extinction
of curiosity's reign,
Victoria knew that law and politics are nothing more than an imposition
by the few heaved upon the many,a yoke of oppressive genius,
Victoria, a child of love betrayed,a woman of courage displayed
thought toughly & tenderly about the potential of mercy,
an enviable Empress,

compassion and kindness were complimentary components
to her dangerous disposition as hawkish talons
may be employed for feeding of fighting,
she developed into a clandestine warrior of natural necessity,
this world would either waste her
or she would wound the witnessed wickedness,

there was no harmony to be hankered for,life is a war of wills & wits,
espionage,diplomacy,truces,tributes and trounces always in the making,
Victoria loved God like a woman loves the anguish of pregnancy,
Victoria had a passion and a pity
for the Creator responsible for her awakening -

J.A.B.

    This is a treat for one's consciousness, Justin! We all own parts of "Victoria", this is our deity; our resolution. This enigmatic write can engage the mind of the reader, allowing for a better understanding and insight. A knowledgeable study on "Victoria's" flounces and foibles, Justin, yet there is no harshness nor condemnation. This is the "harmony" we hanker for. Thank you! love, Mikki

    Splendid analysis Mikki! Yes, we can make the world, anything, with Deity and Providence awake in us! Mikki you are such a great student of the cognitive arts, and your poetry reflects this - thank you - J.A.B. %

    She reminds me quite of the "creature" in Frankenstein. This is a expertly crafted piece...wonderful

    I should watch that movie, the Bride Of Frankenstein - Victoria can be easily misunderstood because she is a warrioir Jay, like you are, and sometimes people refuse to sympathize with a warriors fury and ambition - coming from an expert this compliment is motivating Jay, thanks - J.A.B. %

    I am here for my dose of your contribution to my intellect. Love that line "truth is permanence in transition"; loved to dwell on that and others in Victoria's story. Keep that pen going Justin, makes me happy! Love, Lizabeth
