ONE BREATH OF KNOWLEDGE

ONE BREATH OF KNOWLEDGE

Baby tell me everything I need to know in one single breath
Describe to me having phun, having plans and having a child
Tell me in one long deep breath all about life and death
And how I should live with ease and stop living in the wild

In one solitary breath tell me to leave the forest for some tiny town
With one breath tell me precisely what it is I need to do
In one breath tell me to stop running around and to cool it and calm down
Take one oxygen granting breath and tell me all about the beauty of you

Simply lay down beside me and with only one breath begin to speak
Instruct me in what I need to finally and at last succeed
In one and only one breath teach me how to help the lame and the weak
Please baby, as naked as you are reveal all the meager things I really need

Don’t take another breath as you proscribe the way I should live
Tell me whether I’ll live or die if I don’t settle down somewhere
Describe to me the feeling if I stopped taking and learned how to give
Baby, in one soulful breath make everything I need to know crystalline clear

About this poem:

THIS IS A POEM WRITTEN BY THE HANDS OF SELFISH LADIES WHO
TAKE MEN'S FEELINGS FOR GRANTED
THE WOMEN WHO WATCH THE CLOCK RATHER THAN THE
SENENETY OF A LAKE
THE ONES WHO HAVE NO INTENTION OF GIVING
BUT ARE EXPERTS IN HOW TO TAKE
SIGNED BY ONE WHO GIVES MUCH NORE THAN HE TAKES!
~free cee!~
SOMEONE WHO COULD EASILY SELL HIS WORDS BUT WOULD RATHER GIVE THEM
AWAY FOR FREE

The breath of today can never be equalled.....

"One single breath" breathed in love gives you all you need to know - the rest you can guess yourself. Love gives reasons for this or that, whether to live or maybe die should love quit for some unaccountable reason! "One oxygen granting breath" is to care for someone: we just need to settle down in love, give and take it in equal portions.

Give all to love;
Obey thy heart;
Friends, kindred, days,
Estate, good fame,
Plans, credit, and the muse;
Nothing refuse.

'Tis a brave master,
Let it have scope,
Follow it utterly,
Hope beyond hope;
High and more high,
It dives into noon,
With wing unspent,
Untold intent;

But 'tis a god,
Knows its own path,
And the outlets of the sky.
'Tis not for the mean,
It requireth courage stout,
Souls above doubt,
Valor unbending;...

(R.W.Emerson, Give All to Love)

Kindest regards!
