Allegorical Valentine

Between confused fanaticism
(virtue gone way too far)
and conscious deliberate evil
(which never seems to tire)
we set our stage in the fair
ghetto of the heart a spike
to put right through the center
of self-centeredness is offered
but how selfless can
self-development get
lost here in feeling’s forest
cobwebs of sensation slapping
our human arms and faces
as we run as fast as possible
past the awareness of
awareness itself just calmly
standing there waiting for us
at the center of the heart
