Love: Part 1

Tremulous quivers
Fumes of ego
Shades of alter-ego

The simmering volcano
The dying sun
A fine drizzle
The lush green sapling

The lonely beetle
and the clear sky
like a clear conscience
and a clear heart

A trivial lie
Random love
Passion’s play

Mere puppets
paired together
made of clay

The circle of life
The sinner's swing

Love is a tart-a wanton
Love is a whore
Love is a wife

A flower raped
drenched in morning dew
the colour-a rich sepulture orange

The requiem in the air
Sadistic sonnets
and masochistic joker
dancing to the cruel symphony

An extinguished candle
an unheard prayer

Lost balance of yin and yang
the bureaucracy of alpha and omega

The unanswered questions
the glint in the dead caged bird's eye
her fetters unlocked-her wings severed

The grainy patch of dry blood
The fragments of broken dreams
The silent howls of dead souls
The happy ghosts of the paradise

Love is a disease
and who has the cure

Love is never lost
Love is the paradise
Love is the drain with possible progeny
Love is the parasite
You and I are the host

Love is a farewell song

The smoke is still there
but where is the fire?
