Listen.
Mere hearing
fails to entangle.
Curious faces wrinkle truth
signs. Go on. Altimeter writers
won't get to the heights. Marigold
buds do not prefer nip naps; they'd
rather slumber. Stone cuts represent
a faded connection: vows today can't
learn tomorrow. Negative definitions
struggle to add up: love actions are
not a category, they are specific,
relative to closeness and tied
to observed effects. Release
cause from love's service;
this religion doesn't say
what must have been
nor how it will be.
