#WHEN A MAN LOVES
Somewhere on the face of the earth
Roses are cut, wars are fought
Gold is mined, banks are robbed
Somewhere in the wide wild world
The grip and grit of a mans' teeth carves almonds out of diamonds
A push, a shove moves mountains
Somewhere in the lines of the universe
Armors are worn, kevlars are strapped
Daggers and swords drawn, bullets made
For;
When a man loves, the echoes of war booms!
He is as a lion whose tail caught fire
He roars, he runs, his prance is a dance
He loses his peace and for it, his world turns a battlefield
When a man loves, death hovers and looms
He is as him known, bereft of sanity yet drowned in wine
He'd ride a crocodile to steal a sharks tooth
He'd build ladders to fetch a star and a piece of the moon
He'd wager with death to bring his dame the fleece of an angel
When a man loves, a god is come
He is as a genie let out of an ancient lamp
He'd make wishes live and fantasies real
He'd make mountains skip and desserts stream
He'd slay giants and fight demons
When a man loves, a poet is born
He is as deep and just as high
He'll send ravens and float bottles
He'll script sonnets and ballads with an eagle's quill
He'd gift the world out of pages off of his heart
Somewhere in the patches of the globe
Magic is borne in the heart of a man in love
