Just so you can see what I'm talking about.
I would love to kiss you.
The price of kissing is your life.
Now my loving is running toward my life shouting,
what a bargain, let's buy it.
*
Today, like every other day, we wake up empty
and frightened. Don't open the door to the study
and begin reading. Take down a musical instrument.
Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
I would love to kiss you.
The price of kissing is your life.
Now my loving is running toward my life shouting,
what a bargain, let's buy it.
