Speakeasy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Have you
\ndiscovered
\nthe Password
\nto your
\nSpeakeasy?<\/p>\n

The Shibboleth
\nthat swings
\nopen
\nthe doorway
\nto the
\nSanctum,<\/p>\n

where you are
\nbeloved and
\nheld in such
\nesteem<\/p>\n

that a grinning
\nspirit
\ngreets you,
\nbearing
\nwords or
\na tune or
\nan image or
\na dance move,<\/p>\n

on a silver
\nplatter
\nheld in red
\nvelvet gloves?<\/p>\n

Or an invitation
\nto close your
\neyes
\nwhile reclining on
\na silk cushion
\ndisguised as
\nyour couch
\nand
\ndaydream
\nwhat it means
\nto be
\ndivine?<\/p>\n

When a
\nWise One said
\n\u201cAsk and it will be
\ngiven
\nto you,
\nSeek and you will
\nfind,
\nKnock and
\nthe door will be
\nopened
\nto you,\u201d<\/p>\n

I believe
\nHe was talking
\nabout your
\nSpeakeasy.<\/p>\n
