Justicemoon, 50

Perfectly Imperfect Me! I am a deeply spiritual but Non-religious person with a passion for honesty. I contracted herpes from a 5 years ago and have found it extremely difficult to navigate the dating world as I find it incredibly important to be upfront about it. It baffles me how uneducated people really are. I would like to find someone who also has herpes but no other VD that also has a like mind, similar interests, and is ready to really see someone...not simply notice them. I work as a full time landscaper in the spring summer and fall months and I am a free-lance writer and canvas painter. I love hot-rods and motorcycles.
The Figurehead
There are times
When this flesh
Screams for touch
For passion
For breath
No abandon
For ----
To give
and receive
To be worshiped
And then
It remembers
The loss
Of itself
To those men
When patch covered eye
Bears harsh reality
And the one
Behind the mask
Reveals that which is he
Leiden with malice
And torn to shreds
Again it must heal
As the mutiny spreads
For the weapons
Of the thief
Are born of the mind
And though freely given
No promise to bind
Unshared and uncherished
The essence grows distant
When self betrayal
Becomes lost
In the dissidence
And so…
This flesh
Will want in vain
Bravely shielded
Her face
Will remain
To maintain
Her commitment
Of dignity and grace
To hold for true
That this treasure trove
Worthy of light
Shall be bare no love
To the pirates' sight
Stoic and sullen
Blue diamonds for eyes
To see in the den
The hidden jewel
And the richness therein
And so I wait
For the one
Who can see
In both darkness
And light
This essence
Of me
All seasons
And storms
Guiding this ship
With pride to adorn
A child on each hip
Perhaps only then
What begins as a spark
Will be nourished to flame
And anchor this ark
For now,
I revel in depth of friendship
From the divine, myself,
And my brethren
I sip
That one day I may
Embrace without sway
The one
Who concedes
Wit
