Deed
Let's workshop this poem about how love, despite being younger and bound for sooner extinction, in some sense stretches beyond death
Deed
Death was happening
before love and will do so
after love, but love
outdistances death
like a parcel of land
(living, full of poison
berries and mating)
outdistances ownership:
even after a person’s death
you can be sure
of her love and be sure
of your love for her.
