Kind of Man

Whispers        cries      soft sobs        
What Man is He to revel in that?
He delights in pain      
far be it from her to render that unavailable
        
Those who come to Him        
know what He does not give
His soul inviolate,
His honour intact      
They burnt Him whole
and ate Him from the inside
        

she wafted in with the breeze,
he never even knew she made it through  …  
Those moats and defences ,
That wall Built around Him
      

she came in from the cracks and the slits        
Staked a claim and nurtured that soil again,
that desert she found and
suddenly verdant greens burst and
enveloped All
that brilliance
coalesced around the two
and entombed Them within        foreverMore
