Let Me Sit By The Lake
.
should you dare think
my desire, my ardour
rises for material things –
.
remember what I asked for –
.
let me sit by the lake.
.
could you dear, think –
I aspire, long for and adore
surprise, surreal things –
.
you would remember what I asked for
and let me sit by the lake.
.
what I pine for God already provided for
before Metropolis – before our modern
concerns
.
what I yearn for Earth already provided
before humankind ever architected war
.
before currency
before institutions
.
love is the only solution – and
to write, to observe you, to
deserve you,
.
all that I’m living for.
.
please love, let me sit by the lake.
.
