The strangest thing about the love poems here

Is that one never senses what it is that

The writer ( the LOVER )

Actually is offering the YOU

( this term of total OBJECTIFICATION the most
Bizarre aspect of the poems )

that is the ( whatever the status of the BELOVED ...
One is tempted to say ... Victim ...of what is often described
as an ... Emotional Assault ... by the LOVER)

other than a simple declaration of hapless helplessness
That seemingly is supposed to entice the BELOVED into taking
On the role as some kind of savior for the LOVER

::

this is a very weird description of the reasons
For love

And hardly seems like love at all

//

Also

The BELOVED never is described in any real way
Other than the physical presence of a body

With lovely eyes !
A magic touch !
Honey lips !
Etc

GOOD MEAT !!!
( for sure ! )

But basically having no separate reality
Or special reality of his own
Other than what the LOVER  
Wants from him

::

It's like

Painting by the numbers

::

Soulless
Death like
Dreary

//

Basically

Not real LOVE at all !

//

Just a poetic genre explored with no substance behind it
