The Perceived Necessity For Three Precise Approximations

Neville

The Perceived Necessity For Three Precise Approximations

 

1) For a Poet Once Envied

 

how much of your soul

exactly

did you leave for your

muse to

feast upon and devour ..

 

2) For a Lover Once Loved

 

How much of yourself

exactly

did you choose to hold back

while I tried

to drown myself in you ..

 

3) For a Cause Once Fought

 

How much time do we have

exactly

for the two of us to devote

to a cause

we know, to be already lost ..

        Such difficult questions you pose dear poet. How do we quantiafy Life's experiences? Does it go by day, week, month, year, lifetime? You have here a trifecta that is a feast for the eyes, a superb study of human nature in three acts. Love it, love it!

          I am more than merely appreciative of this particular visit Bella .. I am delighted you alighted and felt comfortable enough to leave such a reasoned response .. Neville
