a thought experiment


In the void



Without love, what can you do?
Your life becomes a desert void of flowers,
there is no water for your dryness,
common sense is worthless
like all instruments and indispensable technique,
you can just not do anything but languish
in a boredom worse than any hell;
so any love is better,
and that means exactly ANY love!
Let her misuse you and abuse you,
use you for her calculations and own ends,
let her deceive you with just anyone,
just leave it all to her, as long as you may keep her
as your love, for that is all you have,
and there is no life and nothing to live for
but a vacuum worse than death without it.
And that power thus supremely exercised is not by women
or by any partners, but by that phenomenon called Love alone.

You sound like a man easily pleased Christian, which is a comfort to a woman who is apt to easily tease. A beautiful poem on the difference in haves and have knots! Smiling at you, Tai
