A reaction to the song: Kanye West - No Church in the Wild
"Love is cursed by monogamy"
It needs work, but I wanted to publish the idea



Hexed

Love is cursed by being treated like a rare flower
over-nourished to bloom early
trapped in a glass, doomed to fade
only for the eyes of the exclusive

rather than shared and spread wide so it grows and thrives.

Sex is cursed by being treated as though it is a common weed
beat down by some, cultivated to the extreme by others
shared and spread and twisted and stretched to the extreme
in a tireless search for the next best high, the next best thing
the next best One

never given a thought to that

it is in peaceful places,
through gentle cultivation, patience, respect
nurturing and appreciation
that we find our highest moments of love, intimacy and connection

Looking back on a lifetime of love to one woman, I find your last stanza true, even profound.
