Mine, their envy
Those things still I keep in my showcase
Not that I remain ever under their spell
But that they still can charm the visitors,
Whose envy is my pride. I am in strides.

My privilege
I had my self-respect till I met you.
I had my ego intact until I met you.
Now I lost my pride and prestige
At your adamant heart and reticence.
Yet, I am happier to have the privilege
Of not being out of your focus..

Your aura
Senses, you canalize; don’t master.
Mind, you rationalize; don’t block.
Intelligence, you crack; don’t lull.
Self, you meditate, don’t pride.
Your aura will be in expansion.

Visitor Clever Theme Words
my visitors are voices clever words
my visitors arrive anywhere anytime
my visitors script film opera words
my visitors mirror parody depths mime
my visitors initiate connect life dots
my visitors represent patterns to define

In display, not for sale
Flowers, in different coloured petals, are in display,
In a vase, upon a podium, in a banquet hall
For the visitors to see, breathe and vanish.
Likewise are brought ladies in extravaganza
By their men to the visitors’ wistful eyes
And taken back with envies gathered.

Withered as delayed
Oval face, bow like brows, fish eyes,
Arrow nose, rose lips, pearl teeth,
Snake neck, erect bosom, and coal lock
Are a set of grammar for a woman’s beauty,
All of which err in your faculty.
Sleek and slender you are, even at forty,
With wrinkle less belly, as if not mothered.
Your nimble feet and dexterous hands,
With sensuous moves and sensual mind
Can enthrall anyone and then why not me?
Attention and admiration I pay you.
My enlivenment and enrichment I owe you.
A hard pearl in a tender shell.
A pride to the owner and envy to others.
You are aroused, it is my gift.
You are spirited, it is for his credit.
Delayed to blossom,
By when came Autumn,
The bud withered without at blossom.

Crazy Jane On God
That lover of a night
Came when he would,
Went in the dawning light
Whether I would or no;
Men come, men go;
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
Banners choke the sky;
Men-at-arms tread;
Armoured horses neigh
In the narrow pass:
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
I had wild jack for a lover;
Though like a road
That men pass over
My body makes no moan
But sings on:
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
Before their eyes a house
That from childhood stood
Uninhabited, ruinous,
Suddenly lit up
From door to top:
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
Oh, that lover of a night
Came when he would,
Went in the dawning light
Whether I would or no;
Men come, men go;
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.
All things remain in god.

Franks 2000 Tv
Risin above the city, blocking out the noonday sun
It dwarfs the mighty redwoods and it towers over everyone
I still remember when that delivery truck came down our block
What a lucky guy, I hear he got the last one in stock
And the neighbors are just green
They say, thats the biggest screen weve ever seen!
Its franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everbody come and see(franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Thats franks remote control, you can look, but dont touch it, please
cause franks the one in charge and he decides what everybody sees
The pictures crystal clear and everything is magnified
Robert deniros mole has got to be ten feet wide
Everybody in the town
Can hear those 90,000 watts of dolby sound
And Im mighty proud to say
Now I can watch the simpsons from thirty blocks away
On franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Im gonna get one of my own real soon
Its like having a drive-in movie in your own living room
Whoa, hey now... hey now na na na now
Hey now... hey now na na now
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Everybody come and see (franks 2000 tv)
Franks 2000 tv (franks 2000 tv)
Got a two year warranty on parts and labor

2000 Miles
Theres something I need to say
Im not sad youre gone away no way
Wont be calling information
Or waiting at the railway station
You walked out of my front door
I wasnt then but now Im sure
I need to be at least 2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
Had to get me to the church on time
To say that silly I do I do nursery rhyme
Youve been bitching at me for awhile
Say hey now baby dont you cramp my style
Dont go beating me like that
Im glad I wont be coming back
I need to be at least 2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you
2000 miles away from you

Being lonesome
Alone was I born.
Alone will I be gone.
In between on stage
If I am left alone
Why am I forlorn?

Much ado
The one who indulges in fornication
Indoor
Is still a chaste woman outdoor.
The one who indulges in courtship
outdoor
is branded unchaste to one and all.
Much ado about nothing;
Little ado about hidden things.

The neglect was compensated
On that awaited day when my dear doe
Revisited my garden, she never came near
But rather played truant hither and thither
And went away, trampling my flowers.
On this disdain day when the forgotten doe
Again visited my garden, she was dear and near,
And, by holding the twig that I gifted her,
Has hinted that she came to breathe my flower.
First, she marred my confidence.
I went to hibernation.
Later she amended my indifference.
I am rekindled to animation.
Be unkind but not heartless.
Woo any but desert not me.
I love the doe and envy her male
I love the doe and grudge my rivals.
To love is to be jealous

Reverence brings resonance
Whether you have God or not,
You should have someone to revere.
Unless you have reverence
You can’t find any resonance,
For healthy mind and aura.

Advice to young women!
Be alert to strange men!

Others will handle you.
What to be?
Be a rose or a thorn
As you please.
Accordingly,
Others will treat you.
Be an apple or a knife
As you please.
Accordingly,
Be a deer or a lion
As you please.
Accordingly,
Others will befriend you.
How you are
Thus they are.

Neither is correct to the one in the space.

Potency counts
The infertility yields no baby
But still hold versatility in bed.
The infertile and the impotent differ
In that the latter deny sex as well.

Two way action
Someone to ride on, and someone to toe to,
Someone to lean on, and someone to play,
Someone to admire, and someone to despise,
Some to sway on, and someone to obey to,
One longs for alike, else one is in disarray.

The suppressed passion
Women, often, refuse to succumb
To the lust of their higher ups
Who are admirable though,
Not that they loathe their heroes
But that they mind their peers.
