Love Is Nervous
by Philip F De Pinto
love is a rose
as everyoneknows love
is double jointed and blows
everyother one of the rhinoceros horns on its love stem
love heaves up phlegm
love is nervous
around people it knows love
can lead to complications - to people pulling steeple strings
among other things
love eats where it lays
the better part of love lives in the slum
love is a pendulum
swings both ways
love has her ways
as fly crows
as everyoneknows love
comes and goes
and where she flops nobody knows
love goes for broke
love does not abbreviate or deviate
or translate
well - one can only think to cultivate
love like a rose whose fate
is to wilt and choke
and when it does there is no heimlish for love
choking in its own vase
