I
measure time by several conceptions mostly solar the seasons of the
sun for I am by heart, viscera and soul a pagan and those definitions
of god backward before time was a concern or consciousness
measurable--nothing discernible of their passing before mine.
Winter
solstice nadir of my life churning change my emotional year surviving
which I know another annum is mine. I dance before bonfires howling
my plea for life the sun's return and time both precious to me yet
greater so is truth; like all life I have seasons, a time to be born,
a time to live by whatever measure short or long and a time to die.
I
sense an urgency now on rushing my seventy-second-year coupled with a
feeling, more a conviction, an apprehension that while intercourse is
sacred to me I've not known a woman who shared my devotion such
worship this celebration of life so plebeian unwashed by sanction of
any kind yet why are we here standing upon the bones and souls who
engendered us this species monkey amphibian or divine yet a mendicant
monastic ribald covertly & sensuously erotic am I bereft a mate
so inclined.
Truth
be told from soul mate backwards in my time I've made love to mother,
sister, playmates of the sandbox kind not centerfold. In that regard
unlike still life paintings the artist is not allowed to consume the
fruit normally after depiction. By my conception of myself I remain a
rutting snuffling growling beast covered with hair my club laying
beside me for any other competing beast seeking to eat my dove.
What
is by necessity rapid the mating of mice frantic or languorous when
time and circumstance allows followed by orgasmic slumber to arise
and do it all over again harder.
Ardor
in time ebbs finding myself barefoot upon the sands of an hourglass
headed for oblivion. I realize that celibacy has it own rewards. The
peace of solitude comes to mind. In innocent guile sallying forth to
public congress making love to souls oblivious my coupling with their
minds gamed hearts sole reward slowly ticking towards the final and
fatal tock.
In
gratitude for M & Isis the best hours of joy I've ever known
brightening the new year longer by day afterward then the third
longer again;
Love,
Osiris

BABE
or BABY, n. A misshapen creature of no particular age, sex, or
condition,
chiefly remarkable for the violence of the sympathies and
antipathies
it excites in others, itself without sentiment or emotion.
There
have been famous babes; for example, little Moses, from whose
adventure
in the bulrushes the Egyptian hierophants of seven centuries
before
doubtless derived their idle tale of the child Osiris being
preserved
on a floating lotus leaf.
Love:
A temporary insanity curable by marriage.
Pray:
To ask the laws of the universe to be annulled on behalf of a single
petitioner confessedly unworthy.
