what is love if not this


a whirlwind came from the west

and made you have to hold your dress

it blew about your styled hair

i laughed amid your desperate care

 

you pursed your lips in a taut pout

said, “you’re an insensitive lout”

i’m calmed with balm of lips on lips

although at first you did resist

 

but in fashion filled with passion

your kiss you no longer rationed

and as the wind blew all about

with such rage i had to shout,

 

“you’ve never looked more beautiful

this wind is like a musical

i audience with an effect

that what it flawed became perfect

 

revealing who you truly are

till every rose for broadway stars

are not enough to show my love

and how you are the center of

 

my applause and adoration

my love’s a standing ovation

for your windswept woven beauty

i drink like wine made from gomuti”
