Irreconcilable Paradox
You kneel at her feet,
and you roll on his lap.
You kneel and roll.
My Love,
are you
androgynous,
genderless or
genius?
Shhh! Whisper
to my ears.
Can you continue
this – double game?
At war
you cry for heroic blood;
yet sometimes,
you moan, run round
my feet,
and howl aimlessly at Moon.
Shhh! Whisper
to my ears.
Can you continue
this – double game?
In kingly mansions,
you chimed perfect rhymes
for their pleasure;
lulled them in a trance;
and simply picked leftovers.
Here…Now
you SIGH.
Creating Herculean
clouds of sigh,
You SIGH
to relieve our agonies...
and hunger.
Shhh! Whisper
to my ears.
Can you continue
this – double game?
