Peaceful Warrior

His bravery is marked on the tablets in spiritual heaven,
Same ways are propounded so moderately.
The three ways are set to prosper:
Bravery, courage and valour.
This will be physically greater than the angels
That swerve their flight in divine fashion.
I own this kingdom with angels
Like a warrior superior to their rank and file.
My bravery is like his, the bravery is like his,
We are in luck so well, with this bravery.
Our souls stain the skies with blood,
And this is a red substance like the sunset,
Like the sunrise when luck is at your window.

Bravery defined

What is bravery?
To hunt a tiger,
To win a battle,
To kill an enemy
Or to face a danger?

The bravery is
To confess the truth,
To repent for the sin,
To accept the ignorance
And to reap punishment.

The bravery is
To win within
And not to win without.

Brave Sword

By bravery we subdue the brilliance
Of an enemy with a sling;
O the enchantment that bravery brings,
Promises are made on the mast.
Concerns creep to wander with lust,
Bravery derides the normal quest.
That it is from the strength of the heart.
The strong heart must be brave and gallant,
Like Fancy itself, the real pleasures that await.
Love and bravery are doubled when struck
By the sword, steel in its grip and material.

I feel that I'm sort of playing me but more feminine, and to me more feminine means smarter.

I don't think that bravery is about skin. Bravery is about a willingness to show emotional need.

Curiosity

Because of curiosity
All the Vandals had to see
The golden throne
Of Ancient Rome
And brought the city to its knees
Because of curiosity
Because of curiosity
I'm just riddled with anxiety
I'm the lowest level
As a matter of fact
I often dwell for days on this
But when I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
And if you're holding out on me
I get curious
As curious as I can be
Curious
Because of curiosity
Curiosity killed the cat
But satisfaction brought it back
In terms of this cat
As a matter of fact
I'll meet you at the old mouse hole
I'll meet you at the old mouse hole
When I see your smiling face
I'm so disgraced
If you're holding out on me
I get curious
As curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Curious as I can be
Yeah, curiosity

Then I wanted the character to be feminine as opposed to effeminate. Because it's easy to be camp or queen. Anyone can do that. What's difficult is to play feminine.

Women are treated as unjustly in poetry as in life. The feminine ones are not idealistic, and the idealistic not feminine.

The most mysterious feminine factor, the existence that we men, we don't know. It's woman. It's feminine. That's what the sword is about. That's the symbolic meaning of the sword.

There Is Such A Thing

There is such a thing as bravery.
That would be me.
But still I quake in my boots.
Acting cool.

There is such a thing as honesty
But you have to have bravery
To wield it

There is such a thing as
Knowledge of Self
But you have to brandish honesty
To learn it

There is such a thing as peace
But you have to Know your Self
To find it

There is such a thing as Happiness
But you have to find Peace
To embrace it

There is such a thing as Fear
But if you’ve found your bravery
You can stare it down
Quaking in your boots
