Oriflame

Oh! vagrant life, your motive unknown,
for what do you acknowledge me? 
and why am i a pawn?
why fix un-broken entity's?
why lead to deep desire?
and overpowering uncertainty
through all vanity,  yet to be..' 
immolated in eternity's fire.."

Beautifully composed, Joe, but has a forlorn and abandonned air? A soulful write, to be sure! Best wishes, Love, Mikki
