love – a quickie 
(conflating a few current topics) 
love is love 
and it's because of a rude suggestion 
all of us are here 
of course we won't remember that
though we stand as witness
my hope is that that moment 
that thing was we call  love
one wishes to be of a spark 
respect and fun 
they have to have been the key 
to happy rudeness
best between 
without coercion 
without fear 
though each suggestion 
starts somewhere
let it be as mutual 
as can be 
love's not but we imagine it 
love deserves
it makes a face a form a home 
of course there is a dark side 
call itself 
all fists and fear 
but cannot be
called love 
that's the or else 
of one's will 
the other one defeated 
if someone's lost
that can't be love
love is love
we must imagine 
that once upon each other
much repeated in time 
and most of it was just for fun 
it didn't make a you or me 
but it made them the loved
because they were already 
or yet they could be more
still once we each were sparked with it 
and gave us who we are 
to start
and so it is now with us too 
with those yet to  
we have to make the rest ourselves
and be who we're to be
love is love
it cannot be entirely cute 
but teeters rudely on a brink
wishing reciprocity 
shall we sneak off into them then – 
the you and me of us?
and do it
however it is done
with lust 
respect 
and trust  
?
