What is conviction, when I just can’t seem to convince anybody?!: A poem 

(What happens when love is hijacked and falls apart?) 

Were you not the one who anointed me with 

sacred unction, way back then in a time-space 

when the absolute real love and light was all that mattered 

and the euphoria was all prevalent! How is it so 

languished in oblivion, so far from memory that 

none have the courage to even remember it, forget 

acknowledge it? I lived to breathe out the spirits of love; 

the dimensions were not even calibrated then, yet I 

chose January and May to parent me! And who was the  

Goddess-priestess? Where must she be placed 

in a trove of love so silent and distanced, but should I 

decline to make it mine? I have recall, I have truth 

in a sincere dishonesty amid the humongous lies 

that betrayed me! Must I be a guerilla now, since I 

am bereft of my armies? Does Don Quixote have his 

Sancho Panza in tow?  Is Spain causing him much pain? 

I live among a savannah, where the rats are not prairie 

rats; but grassland thieves! I am here to maneuver the  

minefields (if any of you care to acknowledge), so that none  

of your souls are accidentally blown apart. Do you care 

for seaborne carnality? Must spirit be made subservient? 

I did not rue all the treasures I lost, the civilisations that  

I bred that were apocalypsied by the envy of villainous others! 

They have the audacity to defraud me to subjugate me!  

Even my defeat did not cause me pain; but to possess my own  

legacy that relentlessly dares to salvage the ones who  

deserve that, from a devouring! Do you know what nurture is? 

Or are you all compromised to believe the poisoning is your nurturing?

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