Killing Cupid

Luscious lovers strangled by sheets of seduction, Is this for real or is this our thirst for another, Do I need companionship? Or was the smut simply not good enough, A man on a makeshift crutch With a dependency fed by lust Not a bastard son, But close to the Judas of Love, Defying what those before me had done, Doubting the prospects of the one So beyond the romance and the monogamous harmony, All I care about is the curves that caused us, To get close enough to realize, It’s no longer about trust,   Since a physical attraction caused us, To get close enough, To experience what we can’t live without, Is this a weakness or my evil plot? To enjoy what I perceive, Without the prospects of a teaching an infant to walk, An action that caused a religious reaction, A natural necessity once socially ingested, We are fighting to keep from, Regurgitating our misguided perceptions, Of what brings you and I close enough, To abandon those popular convictions An extension of humanity, The exemplification of our species physical conformity, In the wake of a pleasure, an enjoyable experience, Came prospects of fostering generations to show what we’ve done, My fantasy goes beyond the seductive sheets of lust, As I hope that my words will one day be carried with those who follow, Those who will inherit a world of, Sexual deviants, Ego edified lunatics, And love.
