Press play.
(A lone voice whispers)
Is love
Not money or power
The true incarnation of the Sword of Damocles
From Cicero
In history
For when it falls
Are you changed forever
By its sweet and dark mysteries
While Brother Death and gathered Angels and Demons
Watch
And does
“Fall it must”
Be a prerequisite
For a sweet taste of much-needed happiness
Internal reconstruction and development
To appear
From the quietly blowing dust
Of just living
So if you're lucky,
You'll find who
Your soulmate is
Even though it can be
Sometimes
So cold
Sharp and
Unforgiving
