Destiny's Dance

I stand before the judgement of my destiny
Upon my birth -- the one I vowed:
And to share in this existing life
In return I was promised mortal love --
Now as Clotho spins the Lachesis' allocated length --
Anthropos and I do the final snap dance.

Alone, not in life, with partners I have danced --
Onto the next fox trot -- Aphrodite's destiny:
I did not care on our relationship's length,
Content that my life contained promised vows --
Blind justice screamed inside of my love,
As I danced deeper into Abyss's life.

Days are filled with white cultured hues of life:
Underneath mythological stars, rainbows dance --
With one-horned white horses I fell in love,
Living out my life's curved destiny --
Alone, I'll not live, I cried in vow --
Wondering, even young, of life's length.

King Edward Second screams, a hot pole's length
Was shoved up his anus for leading a gay life --
Society's ideas I would change, I made the volunteer vow:
With princesses -- politicians -- people I have danced
To remain poor sharing a compassionate heart -- my destiny --
And through this poverty enriched with love.

It was not through sexual but unconditional love;
That was seperating and dividing my Psyche's length --
To journal a journeyed journey, my destiny --
To pen as a poet tortured, reality splice of life,
And see beautiful days as we waltz life's dance --
I will live life to the lei everyday I vowed.

It is not with a mortal I have exchanged marriage vows;
And I had no choice but to fall in love --
In sickness and in health we have done our snip dance.
My partner is Chronic and my Chaos string's length --
And witnessed, not wasted, the diversity of life,
For it's recorded amongst my destiny

To my nine muses I vowed, Lachesis' allocated length --
Would be spilled amongst penned love, not a shameful abused life:
As Anthropos and I dance the final snip of my destiny
