So, grasshopper.... What is love / to someone who is complaining? Screaming. Wailing /  Proudly prevailing / loudly Reprimanding Or commanding Bounded feet Pushing. Shushing in rushing / Busiest with everyone else's business Pushing. Dumbfounded yet Enforcing. Forcing / mindlessly divorcing meaning? Not knowing /  Rather assuming or presuming To speak not for himself Instead for us, lauding law, howling for god What is it without making / any sense? / Having no reason? What is love if only a word / Sung or graffiti tag on walls / Ave. 3rd / blurbs So to speak / a word / whispers... Write or read / Flat screen / one dimensional unexperienced / Word up /  Another billboard's Loud propaganda "Unt wonder-bar sinfully delicious" You will OBEY Says snickers / Harangue of commands The replete of a single word / repeat "Believe" On and on / carrying calm And what is forever to an insect? With brief breath Vampiric      Parasitic     Abuzz Without purpose but swarm Wasted waning /  Locust death Landscapes / we barely notice Cherish just a starving word So goes my question / Unanswered. Kept distant. Unproven / underserved The point is moot / What is love  / To you? Without proof Without life What are eyes without the light ? What is love if nothing /  If never born A mind Emotes  /  oceans / swells / Love .... The tiniest of tempests One thought becomes a storm Felt Like dreams /  Stars for diamond tears Energy in living form... now asking why / Are we here? No doubt It is to know love And so... What is a good word?     Truth (the word of god) So jump for joy, grasshopper... Being loved is like being found. Finally seeing the awe and the wonder. The clarity of a mind's eye, life is the dream the heart you must plunder. the perfect time is now because this is love, grasshopper and we are the tempest and peace the hearts who think... This must be love Thank goodness/  for everything….

Tiniest of Tempests
So, grasshopper.... What is love / to someone who is complaining? Screaming. Wailing /  Proudly prevailing / loudly Reprimanding Or commanding Bounded feet Pushing. Shushing in rushing / Busiest with everyone else's business Pushing. Dumbfounded yet Enforcing. Forcing / mindlessly divorcing meaning? Not knowing /  Rather assuming or presuming To speak not for himself Instead for us, lauding law, howling for god What is it without making / any sense? / Having no reason? What is love if only a word / Sung or graffiti tag on walls / Ave. 3rd / blurbs So to speak / a word / whispers... Write or read / Flat screen / one dimensional unexperienced / Word up /  Another billboard's Loud propaganda "Unt wonder-bar sinfully delicious" You will OBEY Says snickers / Harangue of commands The replete of a single word / repeat "Believe" On and on / carrying calm And what is forever to an insect? With brief breath Vampiric      Parasitic     Abuzz Without purpose but swarm Wasted waning /  Locust death Landscapes / we barely notice Cherish just a starving word So goes my question / Unanswered. Kept distant. Unproven / underserved The point is moot / What is love  / To you? Without proof Without life What are eyes without the light ? What is love if nothing /  If never born A mind Emotes  /  oceans / swells / Love .... The tiniest of tempests One thought becomes a storm Felt Like dreams /  Stars for diamond tears Energy in living form... now asking why / Are we here? No doubt It is to know love And so...
