Scriptures Of Skin~

If you desire to understand

The scripture

Etched into my Fate line

Be solid

Be firm

Be more than a man

Be a god

 

If you desire to understand

The marble

Etched into my emotional skin

Be more than my equal

Be more than my mate

Be more than a mortal

Be a god

 

I am not your everyday baggage

In Prada heels

Unblinking under puncture wounds

Flashing veneers

Flashing silicone

Washing reality down

With a martini

 

I am a watcher of men

A fisher of souls

An animal with a refined nature

Stalking the most engaged game

Never averse to slit a dream

Or swallow a stray drone

Who has overstepped his boundaries

 

If you desire to understand

The calligraphy

Etched into my immortal clay

Be more than my companion

Be more than my distraction

Be more than my rib

Be a god

ooooo - classic Selene - "I am a watcher of men
A fisher of souls
An animal with a refined nature
Stalking the most engaged game
Never averse to slit a dream
Or swallow a stray drone
Who has overstepped his boundaries" - such a pleasure to read your words as always - though I find there are less and less when I visit your page :'(

[Neva Flores Smith - Cha..]

I can definitely relate to this one Selene.........tis what I look for too in a man. Wonderfully written.

you certainly never cease to make me wet my pants with every read of yours. you are so blatant and you never beat around the bush...we all need a bit of surreality

[Rikkevi Rue]

well it is truth, at least for all you can squeeze out into the ink. the problem with endeavoring to convey the immortal in terms of the mortal is, well...mortal! But you convey it with excellence nonetheless. What world would we have if more could accept their own divinity. Religious dogma aside, there surely is that bit (or bunch!) of God in each of us. You just exploit your apportionment more skillfully and artfully than the rest of us! (and perhaps got more than your fair share and kept it you greedy girl! lol)

The write is commanding and lofty. Proud and confrontational, like all the most intriguing women-lol! Such must have spoken Cleopatra of Eprius (sister of Alexander and daughter of Olympus ) to the many suitors she turned away after the death of her husband! Yet here it is topped with a generous helping of Selene, Prada, flashing silicon and martini's to boot!

I like the best these lines:

I am a watcher of men
A fisher of souls
An animal with a refined nature
Stalking the most engaged game
Never averse to slit a dream
Or swallow a stray drone
Who has overstepped his boundaries

for they precisely and most adeptly articulate the soul of woman, which after all is the essence of why you are so special as a writer, you command the free rein and full gamut of articulation. Always a "black caviar quality" treat to read you!

If i could read your mind love what a tale your thoughts would tell .

An old song, but it's what came to mind when reading your poem.
You continue to amaze me with the uniqeness of your chosen words :0)

[John Jackson (El Juero)]

One must be a God to join you, Goddess.
Beautiful writing...as ever.

[FireWoman]

I don't think that is too much to ask, it is the bare minimum to keep my attention. Thus my attention deficit when it comes to men, here for a hot minute & then it's gone.
Lets meet for latte & beignets in the next realm, k?? Oh what havoc we shall create =)

[Pax Analog]

Ah, refreshes the divine palate. And while some might think these brisk beautiful lines a superhuman injunction, it induces in this reader a perennial Zen smile. For it is flipping the great switch from self-other duality to seamless Nonduality that accomplishes your adamantine sublimity.

And you must know this meshes w/my ScriptureX series beautifully.

Pillow book on fire -- only a priori divinity remains.

[LilyT]

The problem here Selene is that you are more of a god than any man and more of a man than any god, and you know I mean that as a compliment. You are a deity with no equal darling.

What are we going to do now?

[Kerry O'Connor]

Be solid
Be firm
Be more than a man
Be a god

This is potent stuff, Selene. Please sign me up, because whatever you're selling by way of life's vision, I'm buying.

[Haim Kadman]

It's me again your loyal admirer!
