Love's Will


"Love’s Will" 

If we could just
get over ourselves
turn the light 
inside out
from dark man
see the beauty 
in all, 
save all;
creatures,
great and small;
those,
that to each 
Other
are different 
and invisible;
get over our
competitive
warring, sick 
unilateral demands,
our tainted will
saturated by 
the underbelly 
of hell’s grime;
then, 
perhaps

LOVE
could attain 
Its grand plan

perhaps
perhaps
perhaps

LOVE
will reveal
without interruption

to secure each
the Other's,
full attention span

voluntarily 
without
intervention,

Its testament,

Its winning 
finale, 
Its full hand.
