Bas le masque Dulcinea del Toboso ! Bas le masque Aldonza Lorenzo ! Bas le masque Idolâtres ! Aphrodites de tout acabit Dames de mes pensées Invisibles Dulcinées Dont j 'essuie les refus Pour chacune de mes avances ! Mes feuilles, mes flammes, mes âmes ! Vénérées comme je n 'ai jamais été aimé ! Priées comme je n 'ai jamais été désiré ! Chantées comme je n 'ai jamais été embrassé ! Caressées comme jamais on ne m'a honoré ! Vos panoplies diverses et variées de Muse de chevalier errant Ont pu jadis faire illusion auprès des fous errants De triste figure et autres Rocinantes Mais don Quijote de la Mancha Est transi dans la place ! Fuyez Aphrodites vulgaires Venez à moi Aphrodites célestes Déployez en moi animus et anima L 'énergie d'Eros. Défiez-moi par vos énigmes Questionnez-moi, jouons A qui sera le moins sage A qui saura lire entre les lignes Des lèvres philosophes de l 'autre Les chemins de traverse qui mènent au bonheur Je suis Philon ! Soyez donc ma Sophie ! Je suis Salomon ! Soyez donc ma reine de Saba ! Vous êtes Désirée ? Et muse si affinités ? Adoubez-moi Napoléon, prince consort !

Et muse si affinités, adoubez-moi
Sophie sits quietly, soaking in the sounds. This Jazz club suits her perfectly, As she swallows spirituous rounds. The music is hot, with Latin-flair, and Pulsing, staccato, percussive drive. The air on her shoulders is moist In this Parisian summer jive. Sophie tastes the twilight culture, She lives for the buzz. She won't accept the ordinary, she Vibrates with bohemian blood! She loves her music live in her Sultry summer jive.

Fake rhyme, cut your lines, drop your electricity cost, Such a crime, give you time, from my spitfire; sharp claws, Doing time, make your mind, well done or raw, Cuz' I'll make you mine, tame your kind,done? clean your paws. Ecstasy, what you're feeling? my Legacy, after that i'll make you the deputy, even tho you're my enemy. Give you a lil' recipe, jealousy for my rhymes, my destiny. It's alright, while you're climbing up desperately, I'll be improving; endlessly.

you have always been half a world away but now my heart is only breaking more i don't know if you're really gone but your silence only lengthens this war even though you never knew it you helped fight the demons in my mind just the thought of you leaving me erases all hope i could ever think to find i honestly can't say that i'm surprised i always knew that one day you'd leave me but i still don't want to believe it's true because my heart still says that it can't be i didn't even know that i could break more but i guess that's what you do you poison and destroy then leave when it's convenient for you even though you've ruined me forever to me, love was never a lie and there is no way that i could ever say goodbye

Was it because,    I wore black?    I wore make up?    I colored my hair blue?    I listened to different music?    I didn't play sports?    I had few friends?    I didn't say Hi to you?    I didn't wave to you?    I didn't go to prom?    I didn't fit in with the norm?    I was fat?    I was skinny?    I was gay?    I was black?    I was Asian?    I was white?    I wasn't as beautiful as you?    I wasn't on the honor roll? Or was it because I was just being me?

baby the world holds you with complete delight- time rocks you in reverence and seconds and hours are prayers for you. the world is new and yours. it sings and sighs in solar keys and mountains hills and trees are temples with life for living. you are the most beautiful melody each note a psalm and your heart one great balm that soothes us. honey you are pure life your eyes pools of deep genuflection you find love for everything and darling you love so truthfully.
