Love Seeded Into Two
LOVE SEEDED INTO TWO
Love seeded into two
Turning away from sullen blue.
Time Capsules, souls search,
for treasures and purpose, purpose.
Sullen bellows of gusty winds, there
treads the daughter of mortal sin,
as she grins and picks her victim the truth surfaces.
Abuse, slander, scandal and divorce of principles,
she settles down to a poor man's life.
Creation solely, only, for you going forward to another life.
We are allowed more than one, more than one.
So the sun comes out and smiles and shines brightly
from without and within. There is no sin.
There's reality of pain and the heart wearing thin.
Sink or swim to the shore or out another open, closed door
wondering how you tripped to the floor.
Scams, revelations, points you made in school,
staring at statues of the immortal fathers,
you play piano on the stool.
Crazy aspirations,
pains pass you… asking why there is
death and loss
accumulated.
You will tear them from your heart
as the years go by.
Dreams of money, power, fame and sex,
writing out those bills and checks.
Mundane paper-work,
knowledge from a book,
turning trash into treasure,
while making it rhyme.
Playing the lover, the playmate, the grocer and, the cook may spoil.
Oh the turmoil when we go blind,
we die,
we love,
we toil, only in the human time.
And then God reaches in and spins the records to the tune of you,
where love is love
and truth is true.
