Love And Passion



There is a love of fashion and vanity and style.
There is a love of passion and arrogance and guile.

There is a love of candy and chocolate and treats.
There is a love of brandy and alcohol and sweets.

There is a love of anger and violence and vex.
There is a love of languor and indolence and hex.

There is a love of college and sophistry and facts.
There is a love of knowledge and pedantry and knacks.

There is a love of travel and escapade and rest.
There is a love of cavil and trickery and quest.

There is a love of money and avarice and greed.
There is a love of honey and gluttony and feed.
