Pitching Popcorn For Valentine’s



The vacuum spins.

Having you, delighting you, it must be unreal. The thin prism, lunatic passion, so desired, so feared.

Many shifts. Many glaciers. Global Warming.

Some force into sunrise. Sleepy. Heavy with sediments—the fire of invisibility, one last rite.

A dreaming reality—acute science in compassion—to need to be affectionate: soft tug, gentility, appropriate language.

The reasons are legit. Having complication—hesitating. If it means life, life is sacrificed.

Purgatorial relief. Stigmata are boxy. Sweet bosky brains. Depending on selfish, demanding, radicalized passion—the love of the invention.

Wheezing over love, staring into metal, so fleshy, pure horizon, falling backwards.

Imagine the science of love—the religion of love—so much more to discover as seekers of love. It keeps hungry, a large appetite, the damages and sutures of love.

She becomes you—each characteristic—each nuance.

Love must be perception, feelings, and emotions; logical at points. To perceive love by actions; to feel those perceptions; to debate the subject-matter.

Songbirds in the clouds. Sunset in its glitter. Resuscitation. Lose. Findings.

She knew more. It didn’t shatter me. It never mattered.

The cadence of the betrayal. The excellence found is the observant. To peak so earlyanother those strict habits … if to love so briefly in one life.

The vital blow. It might subside. It might push forward.

We strategize to love each other.

Most nothing matters, where it becomes existence.
