holy whore

does the shameless expression of my sensual, wild, naked, nature

scare you?

do you think you need to save me?

are you convinced you know what is best for me?

do my bubbling

uncontrollable

emotions

bring you to heights of fear?

desperate to make sense of me?

would you rather

put me somewhere

I can no longer surprise?

does my anger at your lies

show you the harm you inflict?

Is this hard to digest?

would you rather I remain, silent?

does my innocence,

scream

that I need a guide?

are you terrified?

does the madness I dance with,

summon the dictator,

from your depths?

Am I Demon? A Victim?

Would you feel more comfortable making me wrong?

Deciding I Am Dangerous?

Am I The Enemy?

can you even see me?

Are you hurt,

by my boundaries?

or am I simply

the aching truth

ready to set you free

    Ivy,
    It seems like you haven’t been writing (lately).
    I don’t want to come off as a stalker but I check from time to time. 😣
    This blog post (above) of yours is funny to me – because I can’t believe anyone would think you need saving.
    Do you get that much?
    I believe that only God can be that.
    (Yes, I’m a believer.)
    I don’t just put my belief in a lot of things, but I do believe in a creator.
    The way I see it…
    People are Art… and as creations we exude what life brings to us – and how we define it.
    My perception of you is that you are a creator.
    You aren’t dependent on much. I think the point of life is to take what comes, make the best of it, and produce a conclusion.
    Perhaps you depend on a bit of sunlight from time to time, like a tree. 🌴 😛
    So, if you have writers block, maybe I can be that sunlight, kimosabe.
    Do you know the saying “In Vino Veritas”?
    (It’s one of the reasons I love the movie Tombstone.)
    What do you think about that Doc Holiday movie line?
    Could you write a new blog post on that? I’d love to read something like that (from someone who so clearly writes with such resounding resonance).
    I need to be inspired.
    I know that can be a bit much to ask. Perhaps I’m the one who needs saving.
    I’m not feeling good about all of the turmoil in the world. (An understatement if there ever was one)
    Personally, I’m waiting for the Wyld Stallyns band to create our new reality with their music. 🎶
    Unless, it’s you who beats them too it, with your lyrical radiance.
    P.S. You don’t have to reply. I just had to reel you in from your busy life. I know how it can get. 🙂‍↔️ 🎸 Never forget though that you can be that sunshine in the lives of anyone who feels the sunlight on their face. ☀️ Your words are not lost (and I’m not saying that for any other reason than my own greed)
