MY NEW MUSE

A NUBIAN KISS
by
Vernon J. Davis Jr.


In the deep dark

I thought they were Her lips

Waking me up

But who I saw

Was not She(Syawla)

Breathing in my face.



The eyes I didn't recognize

Yet,...so close to mine

And when she floated

Back a step,

She was new,

A soft shadow,

A Nubian Seraph

Not Who I Thought She

Would be

Not my personal Wraith

Just a new muse

Leaving Her

Angelic Lyrical Rhythm

Imprinted upon my soul.


A Nubian Seraph

Loving me...with Wisdom
