Dear Lady Lilith
Darkness in the night
Sweet sober melody
Fritter with delight

The quitter with his might
Dear Lilith, Lady
Is always quite lazy
In his tailcoat, and he face
catered like the moon
scars, rings on his fingers

His face is pale
His walking stick is cheek
his gait is mysterious
Oh great mystery, Isis,
I'm weak

Broke is the man who was broken as a boy
So we are all broken
Broken by our toy

You thought the other way
that you were broken by
But broken blasphemy
Lilith watches with her eye

She doth have the power to restore
But will she haul your body ashore
and give you a kiss
or pull you up into the Myst
and hurl you in the abyss
-Steven Frost

Hi Alex... I've read your 'Lilith Poem by Steven Frost' several times now...

Who is Steven Frost?

Is he a character narrating the description, or the author?

Love the tense 'go from me' 'come to me' aspect-- the draw, then the unfurling.

Lilith's power is deeper and hidden and more mysterious than can be noted by only a surface glance. The feel of her wounds and passions' swellings surprise even the most-aware of mortals... In the end you find you've been lifted off familiar foundational bearings then settled back again to that place where you were, but changed forever in your Soul...

Glad you're here!

The 'search engine' I used that morning to 'check' did not acknowledge this POET at all! ~~ creepy retrogrades?

Bottomline is that I SHOULD have fact-checked a little further... Today another search-engine came up with the answer instantly!

Thanks Randall... And sorry about that Alex!
