true essence of man

by ibn heerman - Libra

a warrior poet he could only be
invulnerable in the face of depravity
infallible in love for the knights accord
making flight to the wicked ways of the horde

upon return to his lover sweet
his stone heart makes a hasty retreat
heart of life and song replace
to contrive sweet sonnets
that serenade
at a lovers pace

Reason for writing:

    a most rare vision
