How to describe love?
What interpretation presides?
With what does one measure
The requisite thees and thous?
How much an abundance
Of flowery discourse to purge?
Empty your vacuous desires,
Lest you explode in love.
Perhaps that could be pleasing,
Covering a lover in poesy
Before the physicality of
Amorous advances.
Then there is the trick
Of kissing her hand.
Lips dry from nerves,
Sandpaper brushing her knuckles.
Wet your lips,
And be as a dog
Slobbering over the mistress’ hand.
Stumbling, stuttering words,
Fumbling over slippery compliments.
When should you have noticed,
She spent so much time on her hair.
Miss that clue,
Then crawl into the gutter.
Perhaps a bed of roses,
And a bank loan to pay for it.
I could prepare a romantic dinner,
But should i yell
And throw frozen cookies to the audience?
I tried massaging her back
The other night with fine oils
How was I to know of her allergies,
Peanut oil in particular?
