A Calling

.
.
Elements predestined
must meet halfway
coming together must be honest.
And the higher self, do no harm.
.
God, lord master. She divine
& machismo endurance of lifeblood weaving
through and by pollination of men and women.
.
As in Plato, love and differentials of love.
Enclosing love abides. Love both faithful and free. 
Love over sex but not above it. 
Love for these men...in particular..
.
Joy in the present: abandonment in poetry.
avoidance of petty in usage and respect for sleep.
.
And the higher self, do no harm
to loved ones and perfect strangers.
