License to Feel



The eroticism of perfect platonism

is more than any body can conjure :
Converted to your side - romanticism;
The superiority of reason I abjure.

Complex systems
guided by simple rules:
Reductionism
has had its say.

Mind forbids
but Heart rebels;
though Evolution avers:
Beauty upwells
without rhyme or reason.

Facelessly
You tip-toed into my life.
With a ballerina's elegant ease
You settled into it.
I carefully built a frame
To house you.
But life breaks free!

And now at parting's hour,
My Muse!
Silken strands have I to extricate
from chaotic skeins.
I wonder what I love more:
My love?
Or you?
Platonism is sexy:
The Heart is true.
