The Man Who Loves Much More Than The Lover.... Poem by RIC BASTASA

another man and this is usual
has imagined that he is loved
because he had loved the most
boasting
that tonight that love will be forceful
to sink him
to unfathomable depths
melting him with all
sweet gaze

tsk tsk tsk
another foolish man bites the dust
filling his lungs with sand and soil
burying his body and his lust

tsk tsk tsk
the lover is pretending
closing his eyes in order not to see that ugliness

tsk tsk tsk
when will he ever learn
that that someone has never loved him?

for he is dust
all dust and nothing more.
