I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

Not noon delight nor a twilight's splendors
Not dawn nor dusk: the space between for dreams
Of what you ask appeals to both genders?
Melting yellow soft peaks? Amber warm streams?
Golden brown spheres stacked high, their height unknown?
Tis a past morn's custom, daybreak's bounty
Tis a morning fixture, not to postpone
Bacon Beacon of hope for the breakfast county
Though her cloying honeyed fluids are faux,
Though she takes a sluggish minute to heat
Tis my young wish to make myself her beau
This odd request is thick, so rich, so sweet
Gastronomic Mrs. Jones increases girth
I want to squeeze my Mrs. Butterworth

Fade in: Ext. Theater - Day
Cue clouds: gray shrouds
blanket the sky
and the sun's last remaining rays
Cut to: Ext. Theater - Noon
Cue crowd: no sound,
no song comprise
the mise en scene
of this somber scene
Fade in: Int. Theater - Night
Cue sound: few gasps,
some oohs and ahhs,
some cries comprise
the mise en scene
of this joyous scene
Cut to: extreme close up
Their eyes reflect the faces on the screen:
Newman, Hoffman, Brando, Ledger
Pacino, De Niro
Penn, Caine, Dean
Fade out
