Love Hunter

I will not give in to DEFEAT. I WILL forever roam the GLOBE searching for a LOVE I have never KNOWN. I HUNT fiercely without RETREAT. I know nothing except the hunt. I HUNTED HIGH then on I traveled. With discontent and SOLEMNNESS I moved.I Have hunted so long., My SOUL is weary, my feet are strong. I must continue on this EPIC hunt forgetting how it had begun. I HUNT, I HUNT, I HUNT down my throat I swallow bits of bitter ATMOSPHERE. There Is no epic resolve only delusion and self pity. Could it be, MY LOVE dwelled here. I pondered for endless hours without replete. I tiredly resigned for hours. Even in my DREAMS the hunt proceeded. I lay in my SLUMBER haunted and hoping for. The RESOLVE I could not CAPTURE in my waking hours. I had risen from my REST to the greeting of one FLAMING BEAUTY and a sunny MORNING. I will no longer be hindered by hunger or the need to FRATERNIZE. For this reason I had tea with BEAUTIFUL stranger. Only to RECOGNIZE that this stranger was My GRAND PRIZE. I spoke at length, mentioning the CRUCIBLE, of dragons and demons I fought. I said "I indulged FRIGHTFUL barbarians to sit and speak with you". The end of a LIFE I HAD ENDURED ALL ALONG, SAT BEFORE ME with cakes and tea. I have searched the DESERT RANGE. No flag of SURRENDER at the BARREN PLAINS. AT LAST THIS STUNNING MORNING has begun. The ESSENCE of my being has Found ONE OPEN DOOR. I SHALL HUNT NO MORE.
