"To spark into flame which burns me through and through"
Consecration
Deep down in me that part which lives forever Divine spark or soul or call it what you please Is turning as I feel my heart rearranged Beyond this world and all its absurdities Turning back to poetry now as never Before feeling I have been profoundly changed
A life is sacrificed in moments like these And consecrated to that which I must do To spark into flame which burns me through and through To sacrifice myself into poetry
For such days as I might have left on this earth And after whatever hereafter might be I will mark this moment as my second birth Suffering having taught me wisely and well I am bound for glory if only through hell This is the beginning not the end of me
If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
