how is your evening?

four words,
only one not monosyllabic
and my life
has changed
as my mind
and my soul have changed

how is your evening?
how is you life?
sensing my discomfort
and discontent
right to the core
she thrust the arrow
and found the reality
of needs
and wants
and unattended soul

if only this once I have indulged
that soul
if only this once
I have fed it
then it is too much
too much for the zenman
too much for the priest
too much for the father
and the husband

and only a beginning
for the man
