Officially not Superficial

                 
Damn                  
                  
It's no game                    
  such aggravating ordeals              
interfered                
 in my clumsy attempts                
to court her                    
  and in no way                
was she playing                    
  just making sure                    
I was paying                    
                     
  attention              
and not anything so crass                    
as commodities                    
 though in truth                    
between us                      
 those are not oddities                    
                     
 her true price                    
is purely spiritual      
 her strength grown  
from maddest pain                   
 crushing                      
soft conditioning                      
 from my pot stirred                  
in a completely                      
 alien planet to hers           
                
 in the universe                  
She traverses              
 there is little room                    
for superficial content                    
 not a hell of a lot                    
can you get for it                 
                     
 I cant tell you                    
how many times                    
 post-conversation                      
I wanted to bash my brains                 
 against marble walls                    
  put on those Nike`s                    
 and run so easily away                      
from it all                    
                     
yet ---- every time                      
 I stalled                    
                     
 beauty                    
seduction                
 casual and raw                    
bearing of flesh                      
 sharing of privacy                    
these are intoxicating things.......
                    
  and common                    
as Pepsi and KFC                    
                     
female intuition                      
 eternally                    
more elusive                  
   mystic awareness                    
transcendence                  
 the rarest glimpse                    
into a genuine free spirit`s                    
 torture                  
and bliss            
                 
 she withheld      
a simple kiss                    
not through lack of desire                    
 but respect                      
for Karma`s tempest                    
 the opposite of weakness                    
her awesome display                      
 of strength                  
and cosmic awareness                    
                     
  Im still not                      
100 percent                
  she completely accepts me yet                    
we are creatures                    
 from vastly different seas                    
intrigued to fullest extent                    
  will ourselves                                   
to cling to dear life                   
  together  
swim like wild mermaids  
to escape being hauled  
  upon a dead end deck  
avoid suffocation in callous
 fishermen`s nets  
                     
somehow                    
 a fragile hour glass                      
stands intact                    
 Our sands pour                    
steadily through                    
 it`s narrowed vent                    
and time will soon tell                    
 if together                    
we`ll receive the gift                    
  to revel                    
 in a fantastically unique heaven                      
and weather                    
   the inevitable      
terrestrial          
 balancing hell
