ON THE GIVE AND TAKE OF EROS ! On the lusting of love, Eros shows no mercy! Corrupting my schedule of normal existence, referring to memories at his own insistence, They seem rife with words of his heresy. leaving his memories, so different from reality. I will wish and hope, then choose to deny, the feelings in my heart that he would imply. Because my body aches for my lover, who beckons me lie underneath his covers. **************************** The want and the need is great indeed, and he wets my interest with boundless intrigue. He covers me up with his warmth and plenty, then steals it back through my own fear and jealousy. While scheming to occupy all thoughts and dreams, he keeps me from thinking of logical things. I'm choosing the path of the least resistance, in order to maintain some form of coexistence. Oh Eros is fickle that much you must know, but it's what you put up with to bask in his glow! WordPlaya, Jan 2009 **************************** "The Act of: Death-Defying Affection" The act of: death-defying affection insures the constancy of the stars and their place at the beginning of everything. R. Brautigan
