random poetry spewing
was thinking about the phrase "love comes softly" and decided to write a poem which in turn creeped me out. I've been doing that to myself a lot lately
Eros and Hades
If love is like death
...When who you are is gone,
......Then Eros is an assassin.
We all see the fools
...Killed publicly in a parade
......Or randomly knifed in a crowd.
.But no one notices
...The poison in their tea
.......Until they are dying
.........Until they are too far gone
............Until they have fallen in love.
