Inspired by my first partner and our relationship.","content":"A Light, Love\n\nAgain, I haunt the halls once called \"your\" and \"my\" love.\n\nCaressing the cracks of this castle in the sky, Love.\u0026nbsp;\n\nHe drifted from the shore, pulled by horizon--\n\nDearest doctor, sentimental scientist seeking to define love.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe elephant blushed, trunk aquiver as he reached up to\n\nThe mouse frolicking between his bars and sighed, \"Love?\"\n\n\u0026nbsp;\n\nHe stomped miles of mud to the Lotus:\n\nNo book nor blood nor bylaw should deny love.\u0026nbsp;\n\nHis skin fractures as he slithers to coil around the fallen fruit.\n\nJust this once, he will have his try, Love.\u0026nbsp;\n\nWhen waves writhe and thrash, he answers with firmness.\n\nHis mast sways back and forth with heaves and howls to glorify Love.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThe tern shivered as the albatross leapt into the lightning,\n\nLeaving only echoes of the cry, \"Love!\"\u0026nbsp;\n\nHe climbed down from the castle,\n\nInto the fray to answer the call of high love.\u0026nbsp;\n\nNo one has slept here for a hundred years. I sweep the floors and\n\nOpen the windows into the night, Love.\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Poetry","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1353428-queen-calla.json"}}
