Quote:

My mask smiles deeply,
and it connects to my own face,
to love a heart truly, who won't even occupy your space,

Princess of the Nile,
who's golden, silk skin is the greatest treasure short of Bethlahem.

Hmmm - this poem does seem kinda bittersweet. I am loving the 2 last stanzas ERIK - the stanza-before-last kinda through off the rhythm of the 2line vybe - but in a good way - Kinda mixed it up a little bit - just right enough to segue into what I think could possibly two of the greatest lines I've ever read in any poetry: "Princess of the Nile, who's golden, silk skin is the greatest treasure short of Bethlehem."

That is some fancy piece of poesy DUDE!

Novel: "My mask smiles deeply..." This is an exceptional piece of poetry ERIK. Maybe perhaps a little later I may tell you what it means to me

Egyptian Royalty right in our own frontyard perhaps? If only we can recognize it!

Very nice - exquisite sharing!
Thanx

Jacquii.
