No Agreement, Only Understanding. Poem by RIC BASTASA

this is the place
where true love lives

beyond good and evil
beyond right and wrong

what we did was something
which could not have been
tolerated

obnoxious she could have
said well to describe it

unbecoming of ethical rules
you keep the silence within

we did not hear any complaint
when we dined together

this is the place where you
live where you make me live

i know you love me and it is
enough-i reside in the silence

of our convictions, there is
no agreement, only understanding.
