Avidity
And after the Grief
After finding
Balance &
attaining Peace,
She decided to immerse
Herself in Life once again -
Tasting,
Devouring,
Rolling
Catching
the Scent
Choosing to
partake in
the Great Hunt

Gender Specific
You flirt. You tease.
And with each suggestion, each temptation -
you remind me that I am not the preferred gender
That you like boys, not girls
You gave them up, those girls
And I am one.
I shrug, I smile
You reveal, your type...in vivid detail
Your burgeoning voyeurism all aflame
I note, I listen
Entranced by every word
Like a predator tracking prey
Hungry
Starving...but still waiting
And you remind me...
I am the wrong gender
Not what you crave...

Said the Tigress to No One in Particular
My Temple is a place of divine worship,
Not for the weak or faint of heart
Never again will canidae cross the threshold
Canidae claim to be faithful; to mate for life
Canidae claim to agree on the meanings of honor, integrity, and loyalty;
And in the end, canidae leave to chase birds and bugs
In the meadow
Stay in the meadows, canidae
Entry to a place of worship requires more than a you are willing to give

Did You Know...?
Did you know that...
- When you are truly joyous, your eyes are a brilliant blue?
- When you smile really big...
...the long laugh line on the right side of your
face is longer than on the left?
...there are far more laugh lines near the corner
of your right eye than your left?
- Your smile is a little crooked?
- Your lower lip is full and begs to be nibbled?
- You have a dozen other dimples and creases that just call to be touched and kissed?
- Your forehead is a bit high?
- Your...

Tabula Rasa
How do I take back that which changed everything?
Once one extends an invitation, thought of as a gift, something that can be refused without penalty - how do I take it back?
Why can't people even read their own blogs? Just prior to my invitation, life was bliss. I was a goddess.
Now - the voice is silent on the writing, and in the world - I am less than nothing.
I tried to rescind my invitation, to restore what was.
But once I put that energy into the universe, there was nothing I could do to take it back.
And now, it has become...

Empty Temple
A Teacher is not a Teacher without a Pupil; a Master is not a Master without a slave.
A goddess in an empty temple is still a goddess. Just one that is alone.
"...And he stood, growled, and shook his mighty gray head, at once, flinging and breaking his collar against the temple wall. With a supple movement, he was gone into the night, leaving nothing but a shadow of where he had been.
No longer lost. Back into the wild, to his pack. His service done."

Freedom – A Poem
We all have the right to be free
We all the right to choose freedom
We all have the right to be
And feel
And live
And love
So what does it mean to be free?
For some it means devotion...and servitude
For some it means responsibility and leadership
For some - it means lying in the green fields and smelling the flowers
For some - it means being solitary and wild
We may all create the meaning of freedom - we all have that right too
I can be free in a prison cell
I can choose joy
I can choose happiness
I can...
We all the right to choose freedom
We all have the right to be
And feel
And live
And love
So what does it mean to be free?
For some it means devotion...and servitude
For some it means responsibility and leadership
For some - it means lying in the green fields and smelling the flowers
For some - it means being solitary and wild
We may all create the meaning of freedom - we all have that right too
I can be free in a prison cell
I can choose joy
I can choose happiness

worship
Don't you understand? You already belong to me. You know it to be true. What has been lacking for you for so long is the true sense of belonging...as in belonging to. The acknowledgement of your fierce loyalty and committed selfless service.
You long to lay your head in my lap while I run my fingers through your hair; to know you are loved & protected while you drift off to sleep. Your soul knows that surrendering to me will bring you a peace and sense of purpose that has eluded you for so long.
And when you wake, I will be there to guide you in your journey...

Elements of Desire
with perfect Love
& perfect Trust
with perfect Passion
& perfect Lust
i call on power
to summon Thee to Me
& empower Thee
to summon Me
only with such an Exchange
do we transform Pleasure from Pain
feed our Hunger
stalk each Other as Prey
devour each Other
as night turns into day
finally
after a time
momentary Satiation
timeless (pleasure) Treasure
limp bodies in Tessellation
transitory Respite
...
