A Rose in All its Thorns
{I feel}

A Love with pain,
of passion,
of beauty & rage
a fire to wilt
and the infinite plays

in its moment,
it is not despair,
it is not fear –
It is Love in all its rays.

It is not a sympathy I make.
It is a root –
– a root flame
that reaches perfect climax.

I will illuminate you fully!
And you will dance n light for Ever!

~x~~~x~~~x~~~x~~~x~~~x~~

I will bind you
with these thorns –
– bind you at the roots –
– so you will know Beauty
and what is Good & True.

(The highest attainment)
[My] Light must shine [& set] its shadows –
– and they are all Good!

[This] Life is not suffering,
nor is The Rose,
but you must bleed
before you come (undone).

Give unto me
and I will purify your mind
and form
Give into the fire
that is my voice
(And the voice is in my touch.)
(N your flames
I set my eyes.)
I will not cut you down
but you will fall and rise.

~x~~~x~~~x~~~x~~~x~~~x~~

Love,
A Rose in all its thorns
and forms
You

Arose in the dark
{The One Light}

[In] Silence
{see all its aspects}

The meaning of the poem:
To not be seduced,
if not to see the falls in themes of romance. 🥀
It means that truth and the deepest,
most passionate of touch lies only in true love. 🌹

It also points to shifting illusions in reality. 🫣
(Among other things!)

But the artist isn’t supposed to explain! 🤭
Don’t you love breaking all the rules? 😉

Love from J 🌹
