The Price of a Single Soul
Although by no means
perfect ..
She waved a mean
chalice
on the dark side of the
chancel ..
And despite it being so
tarnished, wore
her heart on her sleeve
beneath a
breastplate of feathers ..
Yes, the witch
she gave us seven moons
but only a single
seed with which to play ..
Just how many
hurts, are you prepared
to share tho’
she asked, if I should let
you have
your way with me today ..
A single fuck
is all I ask, by way of trade
for that soul
of yours kind sir, seems
like a fair
and fine, exchange to me ..

Beware!
it doesn't always pay to be too cautious .. but I think I caught your drift regardless ..
Bit of a strange thing to ask for, in exchange for one's soul - swoon! lol.
KP and I never have any 'ardour' stuff!
there are numerous myths and legends that pre-date even your good furry self sir that have their very foundations underpinned by such a deal to being struck .. 🐧
''The Price of a Single Soul" is a well-crafted and thought-provoking poem that uses powerful imagery and themes to explore the complexities of desire, temptation, and the cost of one's soul.
I aint gonna make a fuss, but I am honoured you think thus .. cheers Mot n truly 😎
A fuck for a soul, not a fair exchange if you ask me (Unless it was incredible! Im kidding) Beautifully crafted poem, sir x
of course it was .. Oh' n thank you for feeling it and welcome back 🙂 x
'And despite it being so
tarnished, wore
her heart on her sleeve
beneath a
breastplate of feathers ..'
that's just, soul crushing
depths of poetic empathy, to contemplate
brilliantly worded, dear Poet
(we trip and fall, call it a love
draped
in lust's quick drying cement
then try
to build a house, on foundations
of waste
at divorce time, we place it for sale
split profits evenly
a shattered soul for you and one for me
give it Time
we'll recover, enough to try and fall
Up
...once again!)
falling upwards has been a long time personal objective of mine .. cheers brother Mek
I'm having a wee bit 'o trouble with my BP - please try not to exacerbate my situation....😇!!!
Oooooooooooooooooooooops .. I will be more careful in future 🖤
