Love Letter 264 Adopt Me Into Your Virtue

Assist me
for I remember naught(nothing)
of the truth

Your arrival here
has made me forget
all the gossip

What I had once
worn
is now
old and wrinkled
the place where I live/used to live
has become
unfamiliar

Live on in me,
though I have no future,

I have everything
but death

and that too
comes and goes
without capture
or conviction

and this is good

Your Beloved

Love Letter 263 Silhouette

Love -- let thou cut through me --
for I am just a figure/fixture

the real truth
is that
inside this crystal ball
eternity rises
out of snow

Your Beloved

Love Letter 262 A Poem

you have become familiar
like a favorite pen
I paint my candles on the cobwebs (with)
holding my own eyes open
to see the singe of new light
as I aspire
to become
what can never be
doubted

so it is
you have become
the instrument
through which I whittle
all my useless ideas
into one
stark magnet
of the One

and so
I break all promises
and pedestals
and free lance idols
with indifference
for I know
that all
this foolery
is still
the Path to God

I Love You,
Your Beloved
