Why is love unknown?
If I were to fly toward unveiling,
Would not the sun melt my future,
Leaving me tenuous,
Waterless,
A leaf against a rake?
To resist love is fear of darkness,
For rising implies fall
And love's defeat lights dark pools.
It's rise is the lifting of mountains
Purple and cool against the salty desert of experience.
Love is the fusion of waring empires
Of multitudes bound by swaying awe,
The harvest of eager fields of wheat,
The sway of the body and the sickle,
Young in the liquid of memory.
Love destroys science.
Logic is but a demented game
Useless and feeble in the shadow of smiles,
Trite to the echo of soft whispers.
Timeless truths are an aura beyond the gates,
We must climb stairs for love,
Even as the marble shines us into blindness,
And slippery marble leaves us
Skating at the base
Dreaming of that solid land
That is actually
Just a step away.
