Love and Relationships
The sanitized version of the poem since Medium banned the earlier version
I can unconditionally love you
but not unconditionally have a relationship with you
One need not depend on the other
We may exist without each other
Swans
mate forever
Isn’t that romantic, some say
Oy vey
We, no, you, anthropomorphize all of nature as our spiritual sentience
when it suits you while you lack an ounce yourself
Yet when shown beauty in dogs and cats you dismiss love as mere want for food
Look in the mirror!!
It’s human males, and women too, that live and seek to be fed, flattered, and fornicated
That works for many
Not for me
These celebrate the brighter sides of life, love, and death.
