ANALOGY

It always happens:
Feed the pigeons
And they will shit your windows.

The crumbs of love
Eyes and tears:
It always happens

FORGETTING AND BERNOULLI'S THEOREM

How do you fall in Love? or
What do you love
When you love someone:
You love her hands
Those feathery hands
Casually hanging by your shoulder
When you experienced
The first throes of intimacy

Those little hands 
Containing the enormity of world
Those lines flowing like rivers 
The continents in-between
You could spend eternity there, or
That bright forehead 
You kissed with your fingers
And found your lips 
Hanging by the knots of her hair, and
In a mystical ascent 
Your body attained a different meaning:
Your fingertips have lips now
And your lips eyes.

We love like mountaineering
Climbing each part with courage
And dedication
For that view
At the top.

How do you forget someone? or
What do you forget
When you forget someone:
No! It doesn't happen part by part.
The mountain vanishes.
The view falls.
We miss the whole being of someone.
That someone, who was there
And now isn't.
The total absence of a presence.

That someone is now an eternal memory
Passing before you at high speed
And you're so close to it
That a feathery remembrance
Can suck you in.

HEGEMONY

Meeting you by the oceans of time
I realized
Anger
Was a mere shenanigan
You still rule my heart
With slightly different pronunciation -
What we called hɪˈdʒɛməni
You now call hɪˈɡɛməni
