Beauty
Sweetness
Strength
Anger
Kindness
Remorse
Compassion
Honesty
and
Bliss.
Not just a Man’s name.

A butterfly came
To my feeder today
She fluttered and fluttered
Then flew away.
Sweet nectar she searches
And sips with a touch
No matter the flower
Sweetness a must.
A butterfly came
To my feeder today
She fluttered and fluttered
Then flew away.

Tenderness, sweetness, butternut squash
Mystery in giving not taking back
Flowing freely
Never ever looking back.
Dogma facilitates masking slack
Not telling the truth
Only giving back.
We are one
With what we are
Shovelling shit, taking pills
For now we are feeling
Feeling bizarre.
Will this help us
Find the tenderness we crave?
Or feel sweetness, butternut squash
So far, far far away.
