You'd Think Valentine

You have your assignment
which is to have no assignment
anymore but love freely applied
newly contrived each
confident morning reborn
as nothing but the truth
hardly tolerable reality
our torturer with his tongs
pulling out the beauty and
discarding it while we
are made to watch and age
if we were wise enough to get this far
you’d think we wouldn’t have that far to go
