My Joan of Arc.

Leonard Cohen, made me write this poem. His ghost.

My Joan of Arc..

Dear beautiful poet,

please write on my bare skin,

I love you, I love you.

Please let’s lay bare and pray.

The night will be never-ending.

You and me,

we want no-more war.

You whispered to me.

Please more kisses my dark poet,

please no-more anger,

please no-more disappointment.

I kissed my Joan of Arc and I told her.

We will escape to the sea.

Find a Island,

where we cannot be found.

We will never look back and

you will smile for me again.

Coyote

A soft sweet poem, Coyote. An enjoyable read. Of course you know that Joan of Arc was a warrior but also celibate but, no matter. As poets we can make whatever world we want. I do like the softer tone of this one. Temp

Poor Joan of Arc. Time and myth made her god-like. One of the great mysteries. Old ancient poets and writers made a legend. She lived in a world that was kind. Being celibate. Would of been difficult. I like Leonard Cohen of her. Maybe she was tire of war and hateful men. Thank you for reading and the comment.

I can hear Leonard Cohen smiling, Coyote. You have channeled him well. I always enjoy your poems, how you see the world through your poet's eyes and find an interesting way to express those feelings.

Leonard Cohen, Johnny Cash and Tom Jones. Their older music. If we listen. They can teach us Winston. Thank you for reading and the comment.
