The Pagan Proselytizer



I had been among the peers of the blokes who never flayed celibacy
Fellas dwelling in misogynic hooches forlorn with lugubrious escapades
I had openly taken a vow of celibacy firmly in our conspiracy
Perhaps with some sermon, everyone knew there are barricades
Like a daydream, spontaneously she came around my way
The mint complexion got me astray like jatrophas willing to go along
The sterling demeanor a commiseration for the lost day
Perhaps with this doggerel sonnet she might as well belong
Sitting beside the still waters and watersides vouchsafing our pasts
Watching the splash of the ocean fiddling with her covering endowment
Singing the songs of the birds perched on the dongoyaros with these casts
Telling the world its a new beginning as we gently fly down to the altar in enchantment
She made me a proselytizer promulgating the proof of these true feelings existence
With her companion in the gathering of my cronies preaching love isn't metaphysics
