Love-pains

 

When I imagine the world’s creation,

It is as a match between lovers.

 

She balks at intrinsic limitations.

He favors play by regulation

And the world is a ball, formed by

His contemptuous envy.

 

So we, a tangible love-pain

Navigate ethereal planes.

 

The stars are not her eyes,

But her twinkling teeth in the night,

While she laughs from millennia away

In cosmic avian delight.

  1. Maybe a little rigor in the cadence would do this some good. I'm not particularly struck by it in it's current state.
