army of love

Post by saw » December 14th, 2017, 10:02 am

some days I feel
lazy gray
other days golden true


for i am a spinning orb
no different than pluto
I cinch up my asteroid belt
like every other man

it keeps my pants from falling
down around my ankles
tripping me up
when i try to run

into the meadow of tranquility
romping like a boy
chasing a rainbow rabbit
across an endless field of sky

my father is orion
my mother is luna
and I am a fortunate sun
of the masterpiece universe


given a deferment for age
but still a soldier....
in the army of love
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

a lot of good stuff
a delicious poem
love the effervescent: "chasing a rainbow rabbit
across an endless field of sky"

Love that!
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
