Superficial
There's worse things we
could be than being
color opposed.
Educated without
intelligence.
Beautiful and alone
The world without
a trophy case.
Or trophy case
without the world
in it
or a god to spin it.
To appear you have
it altogether,
while self is
unraveling.
There's worst things
than someone
superficially
loving you
and afraid
your dirt won't stay on you
after they've hugged you
There's those things
many seldom see
through...
Bigger problems
we must solve
If we've been commanded to
love everyone
as we love ourselves
we're loving one another wrong
