but we mostly keep it alive

and each of you is a reminder to the earth of what it is capable of
you are all the reasons, jumping, rational, lacksydaisical, irrational
you are ceaseless sieges on the city of joy, the reason agamemnod went to troy
you are your own god, apease yourself at the knees of yourself
intelligence is not a discipline it is an experience allow it to explode,
destroy buildings i'm sorry i hurt your feelings, did i lose that sweater or did it lose me?

and language was invented so people could lie
dont just say i love you let your love perspire and fly
it is the most profound gymnastics and incredible callasthetics
let me pole volt you let me cartwheel into your beauty in an ideal love affair
we never have to say "I love you" stutter first by the way, I love you

we dont need the sweater, walk through the sweater
the sweater that murders that maraudes
the sweaters that take over our lives and remind us that we dont like the way that we walk
sweaters
walk through the sweater apocalypse and find your own warmth
