On The Day Of Love... Poem by RIC BASTASA

on the day of love
beautiful women move in circles
around a pole
dancing and singing with flowers
on their hair

and all the men watched them
wanting to have them
all.

lady indifference arrives with
madame maleficence
and they watch all the men who want to have
all the women
except them

and there the day of love started
in pandemonium an chaos
the handsome men cannot get all
the beautiful women
as lady indifference and madame maleficence
laugh and curse
and there was lightning and thunder
and then the storms
of love unrequited and all those crimes of
passion...
