Rose of Judah

let her play among the pulps and flowers
swaying with the breeze
contagious laughter brushes off catcalls from thorns

strolling between carnations, daisies and jasmines
with an entourage of birds, bees, and butterflies
she blends in with softness

I can take this into the far side
bury my face in the colors of life & subside
I'm eclipsed and dazed by that beautiful face
so let her be

What do I see in nature?
a Judaean rose escapade,
extending the elixir of her smile
equalizing my epidemic
forever, those beautiful eyes
will her vision ever target me?
Oh, how I wish to be victimized by her

my Judaean rose
the colors of humanity blended in her skin
history melted into the color of her eyes
languages spoken tattooed on her lips
and that midline diastema smile is such a killer

so let her run barefooted
like a soft current between the hills
as I envy nature gracing her presence

in the 20-something years of her gentle tyranny
I huddled with loneliness & humility
on how to inhale the breath of her breath
not to arouse suspicion around her

in the backfield gardens of Netanya

for something in me spoke that I adored her
corroborated by archives from my failed past
to the depriving present noted so

she mingles with the sisterhood of flowers & tulips
about everything and nothing, just passing time

guarded by young bloods, keeping admirers like me at bay
a hand out of stray laughters is all I could grasp
she knows my name, my pulse
will she ever reciprocate?

I’m on the other side in the garden of stone
waiting for the rose of Judah to acknowledge me
waiting for laly

waiting for baby laly
may the lord bless her soul
& I wish all is well

my own mecca *

Laly Laly
let me tell you how it all began

I was facing Mecca on a daily submission
But servitudes & ambitions were longing for a place where you were
A rebellion city rooting for a muse
My demigoddess on earth you

Embracing the tainted calls of your ego
I called on sourly
I etched your name being what I am
I burst into the resurrection
A slate sheet of devotion
I emptied myself recklessly

My corrupted faith gave me away
The holy wept muddy tears
The unholy joyed my infidelity
A savage salvation

I refused to sear my kisses with the poly
A small step for the masses
My celibacy is exclusive to you mono
A giant step for humankind

If only God had taught me to hate you better
Have i mistakenly understood to love others like thy selves?
Have i misunderstood that?
I just gave you a little more than I can handle
Otherwise I wouldn't believe or feel the aura
I wouldn't give you a chance

So I needed to secede from God
With a mecca of my own
My faith calls for you to be a martyr
To bury you in me a shrine

Still, all faithful love seekers would pilgrimage to you
& you're buried in me

I'm alive through you
I am the wall I am the grave the city
The name the face of redemption
The call for devotion
But they come for the crux you

I buried no one but myself
In my Mecca
And you're still alluring
You shine my shrine
In my own Mecca Laly
You are my Mecca

So Laly Laly
I hope you understand my story
It was servitude to be with you and ambition to watch over you
