Best Of It All

(still responding to Huck: "In My Mind's Eye",  q.v.)





Pluck our roses!!  Rip our petals to the sky!!

Our ardor-flame, Oh!, like incense it wreaths and rises!!

Oh!, Burn!, Consume!, Enflame!, Live-to-never-die!!

Engorge the Cavernosa!!  Ply Clitor's disguises!!

We tore our petals away and shared our roses!!

As birds and bees and butterflies all learning!!





Oh!, what wondrous Facts and Miracles Sense discloses!!

Ignite and fuel both id and idiot, both still burning!!

In Death we shall never again be lonely, my Dears!!

We shall eternally count our old Days, and Dates!!

Those gayest of years, and our un-greyest of years!!

Break heart and hymen in innocent intimacy with playmates!!





Never, on ANY tomorrow,

hope the Passioned Life returns!!

We, The Aged, know too well

what the Youth lightly spurns!!

To The Young : : Do It Now!!

Do not wait as the Aged learns

how to lick Love's Dews

from Life's rose-less Thorns!
