poem

 Opposite of the OppositeIn the dualist worldOf interdependent meaning Love is the only wordWithout an opposite.Its absence leavesNothing behindNo sadness to embrace When joy inexplicably expiresNo half moon to brood uponWhen the sun sets until morning.It ’s our own hate We pour in To fill the void When it ’s gone.Carried to a logical conclusionOne sees that love lacks evenThe opposite of its own oppositeWhich is why I struggle to say it Whenever I most feel it And everyone hates that10/23/23
