love is not a stranger
and surprisingly sometimes
its while weeding in the garden
with hands and knees
firmly planted in the dirt
that we actually uncover
all those secrets we are seeking

i fancy a fire every now and then
as all this lettuce makes me kinda tired
it contains opiates you see
and all of this is really quite funny
or i do believe it would be
if it wasn’t such a f@!#@^# tragedy
and what’s our capacity to feel
grief and desire simultaneously
