LOVE DESCENDS

The part of you

that wants

to be loved

must traverse the intestine maze

squeezed beyond the rectum,

dutifully flushed.

As the umbilical cord

is cut,

the desire for more

replaced by the wisdom

of less,

seek pleasure

in the test

of endless change.

When only conviction remains,

hardened within the internal war,

Love descends…

taking less,

to give more.
