In Pursuit of a Desirous Lady

In Pursuit of a Desirous Lady… Your deceitful tease and illusive behavior are beyond compare; your blind promise has yet proven that you really care. How long must my soul lowly hang like unbalance strange fruit--- dripping trails of fallen red juice as I chase you in desirous pursuit? They say only death rivals your equanimity--- fool I was---thinking such also included me. I’m taught to always love and seek you everywhere; but in all my loving and searching I can’t find you anywhere--- For me--- the warmth of your sweet bosom has never been there; yet I shall not wander in vain nor without a strong belief; knowing audacious faith will balance my wanton desire--- sending soft sweet music from the angle’s lyre; and from your aching judicial loins, flowing ecstatic relief: from all the built up painful grief. Yes, justice must be for all: Precious Lord, please hear my call.
