When you all simply don’t belong to me…: A poem 

Who knows how to redeem this liveried existence? 

I just congratulate all my potency in my impotence! 

You know, I never wanted to be the darling 

of a page boy in the nuptials between devil and deep sea! 

And I don’t think there is any justification 

in a marriage of convenience; and, more so,  

in a marriage that seeks selfish leverage 

I don’t spare any marriage that jeopardises the truth 

Even, as you know, not many battles have been won for the truth 

It is still elusive after the theatrics of big wars 

Because it can’t be discovered in the midst of evil 

I am not going to lend my allegiance 

to strange damp squibs of logs being placed besides each other 

They are never going to hold up my rafters, 

nor can they stoke my fire! 

I am not adept at threading the needle, 

but I weave destiny and change its patterns 

every time I challenge treachery! 

If you all think you can make peace with, and to vindicate a poison 

you simply will never belong to me!

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
