Munificent
5-24-13

Munificence is greatly appreciated on street corners
Where I give to those that ask
Without a further need to veil or mask
In munificence by my left hand
Reaching into my pockets and quite happy
To in all of this knowing what it was to be
One to want where munificence is comely
And therefore an act of charity on my corner
Where it all begins again....

Remembering dreams of a conversion to Roman Catholicism
By the acceptance of such a harlot condoned
Within the confounds of the flesh
Quite beautiful in that of which such appears
Like a cleansing of the palate
And wine to drink like love to cast out fears
Just so I could write this poem
To be a blessing to you today.....

Today I accept knowledge as my mistress
Of wide awake wet dreams self fulfilled
Later this evening in these affections
Adulterated by Scripture
Where I can analyze night visions
Of going back to work at those markets
Where I find my turnips
Beloved in being eaten raw
Where love will always be the higher law
Accepting knowledge as my mistress
Like the kinswoman to which I cleave....
