to X out days
in the best ways.
vague is your opinion
of love,
and love is your opinion
of choice.
poets are in the passion business,
and your opinions are wrong.
humans don't choose to find love,
just as we don't choose to be thirsty.
we walk with thirst,
we get punched by love,
or
we settle for a dry mouth
and a lost heart.
rest assure,
we all rest,
dying with songs called decisions.
