Love Hardened

LOVE HARDENED

I would o'erstare the sternest eyes that looks
Outbrave the heart most daring on earth
Pluck the young sucking cub from the she-bear
Mock the Lion when he roars for prey
But in as much as I proclaim all these
I can never bite more than I can chew
And if there's ever a god greater than me,
I will run as far as God has any ground.
But even I, a daring desperate determined dare dazzler
Wouldn't wait for doom without my heartrob.

Anil Deo May 12, 2020 at 4:22 AM Wordsmith Wells, esteemed Doctor of Philosophy. U bequeath much to the living by writing. U "reek of [night's] dank air," when U cautiously encounter people. One has to fully accept one is of value (to the Universe) & then meditate on the value of every life, no matter how "useless" in my eyes. That is all the SAVING U & I need (Salvation is "Sozo" in Greek, which really means HEALING)
