My Roc 'n' Roll, Latina, Doll. Poem by Liza Sud

This is a highly nuanced poem. You want to express certain things and do so, but carefully. It's in the third stanza you say what's in your heart: your beloved is so thoroughly meshed into your life as muse, time, doll, etc. But the very last line of the poem heightens this by declaring each of you is a divinely sanctioned gift to the other. This is stated very clearly, and it means human love is drawn into the orbit of divine love. So now human love is contained with divine love. This is a view of levels of love Dante would recognize, because it is the vision of the end of PARADISO, in which he declares God's Presence in all expressions of love. Dante's view of the interplay of all forms of love in the universe is poetic and beautiful, more so than Paul's dour Puritanism in his epistles. Of course, they serve different purposes: Paul was building Christian communities in a still pagan world, so he is ever fearful but Dante lived in the security of a totally Christian culture. I mention Dante because your poem is open to this vision, as were all of Russian poets - Pasternak, Akhmatova, Mandelstamm, etc. They all wrote poetry or prose consistent with this nexus of divine and human love and fate. I see your poem as a resolution of the conflict between divine and human loves. Why take this view as far as it can go: Heaven inspired the words of your poem to show you that your path in life is righteous.
