Love, Love, gotten my lessons these weeks, how to wear my love like an albatross, how to carry it barefoot like too-hot coffee, how to inhale it like bus exhaust, how to entice it into my chest with a writhing hooked worm, how to catch it with dry fly paper, how to beg it from the poor of body and hope and
borrowing it from my other pants' pocket, I learn how
to steal it
from those around me handing it over.
