There are three chocolate kisses sitting next to the computer that don't belong to me, they're tempting me with their Valentine's day colored tin foil skins. For the first time ever I have a person to share this stupid holiday with,and I couldn't have asked for a better Valentine.
Here is a still from The Dante Quartet by Stan Brakhage
Forgive me for talking about values
I'm passionate about mine
but don't require that friends
or companions share them with me.
They do help in choosing who I attatch myself to,
but don't hold any weight in to whom
I've already attatched myself.
This Is Just to Say
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
saving
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
- William Carlos Williams
