A new
beginning
An older
end
Which way
to enter
To break
or bend
From start
to finish
Who gets
to choose
What time
holds hostage
To win
— or lose
********
Without Care
Women
can love
in an instant
But men
only able
at times
Women
get lost
in the daydream
Where men
stay aloof
undefined
Women
hold onto
each moment
A man
throws away
without care
Women will
question
those feelings
That men
so evade
— au contraire
********
Passions Shower
Art
is the wayward
sister
of sex
The
wellspring
of creative
power
Paying
its dues
to what lust
behooves
Planting
those seeds
only
— passion can shower
********
Spark And Fury
Daring you
to think
Asking you
to wonder
Step outside
your comfort zone
Meet me
in the thunder
All the trees
majestic
The sky bright
crimson red
Where voices that
your birth set free
Call out to you
again
Your home
where spark and fury
ignite the fire
inside
And welcomed back
you’ll not return
To where excuses
— hide
********
Your Fate
When you incorporate
with the devil
A junior partner
is all you’ll be
The I.P.O. seals
your fate forever
Your soul
— no longer free
