Cherchez La Femme
Beneath her breasts
lies a special place
where the soul and the heart rendezvous.
Between her thighs are the answers
to all of life’s mysteries.
You should have known you’d find them there.
In the palm of her hands is the cure for heartache
and unrequited love. Never will she ignore
a distressed spirit. Calmness is inside her.
There, she gently fights a war against
dismal destinies and dilapidated dreams.
With the diligence of a child at task,
she retrieves you from the catacombs and breathes life into you
so that you can begin again, as if you never knew death.
Look for the woman.
Omnipotence is there.
