WAR: PART 6

War is coming.
I've endured more than my share;
so I can always see the signs of it.
Challenges, small & big;
always poking the Lion, the Bear;
testing what's there.

What do you do when you know moves are being made in secret against you;
moves that can kill you;
& all your people,
everyone you love, who depends on & needs you?

I'll do what I HAVE to.
Though I'll take no pleasure in it.
Ultimately, some will PERISH;
others will "Bend the Knee."

War & Peace
& Love:
absent these Life is without worth.

War, bring it on I say!
I know I'll be standing stronger at the end of it.
and after it—

Peace.
This will be my last war.
Then I'll be free;
to return to being ME-

To Love.
No Hate, no Enemies.
And to FUCK, for as long as my COCK will allow me.
The only battles left will be contending with my memories.

And my lovers, my ladies.
All of them:
The ones who truly love me.
The ones who love to hate me.
And the ones who hate that they love me.

Really, they all do, love me.
I told a friend of mine:
"when I touch you it's a SOUL-TOUCHING time;"
you're forever bound to me.

She once felt my hand & she cried.
But the tears weren't hers alone;
they were also mine.
She let loose what I hide.

I heard she found a "Good Man."
I hope it lasts.
And that they'll walk closely together, for many years, hand in hand;
touching each other's souls for a lifetime.

But before I can touch another's,
I must return to this business of war.
And bringing the desire of unjust rule to end, hopefully forever.
Though I'd be a fool to think that will last for as long as I wish.
But maybe it'll last for as long as I live.

The best way to deal with your enemies is QUIETLY.
By my hand they'll be gone from this world.
And only a few will know it was me.
And that will be the end of this war.

Last night I made love to Red again.
Well, she made love to me.
I saw in her eyes she's falling in love with me.
Hmmm.
Said she wished she had met me years ago.

That soul-touch:
it was so unintentional;
but still, it hits you hard;
wraps itself around you & constricts with the strength of a million pythons.

War, Peace & Love.
Ahhh.
A triplet BIRTH.
The order of Life?
Which came first?

What's your choice?
For me, for now, it's WAR.
