¡action!

'love' is an action word much like 'smack'
i see people in love and i want to smack them.
i wanna smack them to remind them what love is.
i want to remind them in opposites
i want to remind them where it lives.
i want them to remind them to let it live.
i want to remind them of the address of a kiss
for when they don't remember that they've encountered what it is
to remind them of many who'll never know where it is.

love is patience, love is kind, love is the smack back into reality if truly stabilized.

love is an action word, often an adjective.
i see lovely people and i wanna live it.
i see simple people and i wanna give it.
i wanna leave it a pocket of the pants that rejects them.
i wanna smear in the gum that mis-takes them.
i wanna wear it over an accident that maimed them.
i wanna breath it into the lungs that have betrayed them.
i wanna fuse it into the cells that will decay them.

love is slow to anger and is not easily moved.
so make the choice love and be loved. to move or be moved.
for love just is as One so lovingly proved.
