Passionate Idea Poem by Margaret Alice

I have a lifelong love affair
with IDEAS and PASSION
Most people never realise
that PASSION has nothing to do with love:
love is passive acceptance of what is
and I am seldom passively accepting
I am passionate and rejecting
cannot accept the world that is
Some ask don’t you love Martin and the children
of course – Martin represents the most beautiful ideas
of honesty, integrity and kind consideration
I love him – accepting what is
as well as the beautiful idea of the children

My passion concerns all ideas – music and language
and science and occult and magic and metaphysics -
my greatest fear has always been that ideas will shrink
and in Official Theory ideas are indeed too small
to contain the wideness of the universe
and the deepness of emotion – I once feared that I would die
for lack of ideas and imagination
but then I discovered the beauty of true morality

and revived in the sweetness of passionate idea!
