Carpe Diem

Lovers gather, yelling "carpe diem" Lovers kiss, living with totem Lovers fall, counting walls Lovers forget, crushing falls. Love birds chirping as one Under a tree skipping one by one Above the bassinet where cuckoos nests Below the cradle are loving breasts. Rush to me and sail with me On a gondola in Venice we flee Gaping romanticism in idealism Dying dualism without ostracism.
