Into the golden vessel of great song
Let us pour all our passion; breast to breast
Let other lovers lie, in love and rest;
Not we,-articulate, so, but with the tongue

A Friend

A friend is one who stands to share
Your every touch of grief and care.

Your praises he is quick to voice.

On a hot, hot day, and I in pyjamas for the heat,
To drink there.

Your feet must struggle; in such bold ascent

You Have Crossed The Rubicon

I was a young vine with leaves until you turned me into a pine.

The pride of many men, until you smeared me with lust.

Fine counsel is confusing, but example's always clear.
