A Two-Sided Coin!

There’s a thought long stayed in my mind itching feverently to be set free
About the fusion of the sensualness of a woman and her divine spirituality.
At some point in her creation from these two vials poured into the essence that creates her soul
Both liquid living concoctions both more precious than fine rubies or pure gold

On the one hand a woman should be inviting, she’s designed to be nurturing and graciously adept
At giving and receiving love and pleasure she is purposed to be focused on thoughts intimate
On the other she is born to give God praise, seeking a one-on-one relationship with her Lord
She’s held to love and benefit mortal man as purposed, and in that find her earthly reward.

I t occurred to me that these two seemingly complex virtues run more akin than they do afoul
And that notion of my subconscious thought is much more clearer for me now
How a woman such as I, prone to erotic imaginations and capable of most provocative scribes
Can also be one with a potent need to seek out the reason I’m alive.

And in seeking out the reason, I must seek first the He who created me as such
So as I see it now there is little distinction to be made between these vibrations in any of us
As I seek to live my life with purpose as all men do, using all my gifts and talent given me by my God
My destiny’s culmination ends as this puzzling dilemma He and I together resolve

How does a purpose-driven woman who’s given talents are in evoking the carnal mind
Discover a way to use her gift of sensuality to honor and glorify the Devine?
How does she prosper in her goals to do those things that are within God’s ultimate plan
When her gift is to be arousing or a titillation to the minds of mortal man?

I sense in me a single purpose, to write with a keen degree of clarity
Such provoking questions as this in the form of modern poetry
Can a (wo)man serve two masters? Are good and evil, like this page, so clearly black and white?
Can there be purpose only for the day and only condemnation for the night?

Is there but one path to the well, from which all men bathe and drink?
If a man’s measure is both vertical and horizontal, can a woman’s be too, you think?
As he reaches to broaden his horizons, seeking to conquer all he does survey
Is it wrong or sinful for a woman to behave in such a way?

I’m often condemned and ridiculed for this notion that I can reveal both sides of me to the world
But I strip off such societal constraints put on me since I was a little girl
I advocate my mind’s delight in serving GOD is in serving His creation man
It IS the purpose for my being, a two-sided coin, is what I am!

DOWANNA!
