Love In the Air
Do you smell the love in the air?
How it smoothly sails through my hairy nostrils and into my mucus-filled lungs?
Do you smell the love in the air?
How it slows my heart down and brings it to a lethal halt?
Do you feel the love in the air?
How it makes my heart move as fast as Museveni's chopper?
Do you see the love in her eyes?
How they shine and flush out all dishonesty from my red eyes?
Do you see italicized love written on her baby face?
How her face is as smooth as the bark of an African guava tree?
Do you feel the love in her breath?
How it warms me up and re-ignites the faded love within the deepest recesses of my heart?
Do you feel the love in the air?
Do you?
