Why love?

2025-09-15
Why love or want,
his wily sex,
capricious and vexed by succulent flesh,
that is woman?

And why desire or have,
her fickle sex,
rare and hexed by a dangling appendage,
that is man?

Or else, turn blind one eye
to the delights that await thee,
and rise from pillow
to stand on devotion.

To want because his body
is celestial grace;
to have because her body
is heavenly space.
