Get Love.


Air Earth Fire Water wrap over me a stolen blanket mother fur 
to nestle in need in something to make sense when humans refuse 
what comforts and feeds, meets need in me.  Small place to hide 
but more than that just it’s fruited, sweet, smiling.  It’s everything’s gonna be okay.  

Why tell stories, why pass it on make it up spew it out force an audience 
yell it louder decide to listen suck it up take it in make it logical nod your head 
try real hard think it’s good when it only leaves you cold leaves you barren 
leaves you hungry leaves you scared leaves you needing leaves you.  
Give comfort away why again?  To be smart to be better to be victor why?
            
Get love get love get love get love get love get love get love get love.  
What else is there?  What else matters  what else answers?  What else nothing!  
No, get love.  Yes.  Get love.
Angels are in it in love.  Sunshine in it in love.  Fruit ripens, love.  Mouths kiss, in love.
In love blood pulses, in love. In it breath goes deep in love
in it, being love in the cloud of it, of love, eyes see, beauty in love,
in it beauty, love is movement in it, in love, it’s grace, forgiveness, in love,
in it belonging, in it, in love is comfort, kindness, warm milk, in love
is laughing, and in need crying is met in love, need filled,
someone in love always comes to help, helping is in it, in love.  
In it, love, in it mistakes get looked at, learned from,
in love hair caresses faces, in love. 
Get in it, get in, don’t go out, get in stay in
caress a liar’s jaw, water a thief’s garden,
blanket round the hardened shoulder, 
hold a glass bowl out for the angry voice.
Get in it, in, in love, in it.  Get in.  Stay in.  
Love.
