utter

too old for self-help,
mottos and slogan tokens,
fool useless, and come pre-broken

need a goal summary,
a single word capturing
the struggle perpetual,
and a word that is
an only commandment

utter

and when it I

utter

it is a philosophy, a command,
an auto-renewed challenge,  
the only sensible, true definition of love,
simple encompass total permanence

it is first
of the day,
last at night

for in a life of

utter

there are no
gaps, interruption, allowances...

say it utterly
