Purity


“I would estimate that I actively participate in only about 30% of the things I write. The rest of the time I just step aside and become a non-participating observer, a spectator standing in the crowd, wondering what comes next. It can be both exhilarating and frightening at the same time” – W.F. Rhoads (interview)

She has a genuinely gentle soul,
fresh and clean,
innocent and angelic,
a rare find
in a world of trash-talking,
self-promoting,
self-righteous,
hypocrisy.

Like an ancient dream
it haunts you,
waking you up
in the middle of the night,
transcending gender
or flesh,
thinking of the purity,
tasting the sweetness,
wondering about the
authenticity,
like a moth drawn
to the flickering flame,
unable to turn away,
fluttering closer and closer,
basking in the residual
glow.
