First Thoughts Valentine

German may be a further
development of coughing
French of humming and grunting
Italian of touching and groaning
English of fooling around
but you can still use
the other end of your pen
to rescue the gnat from your coffee
the only question remaining
will you drink it now
the poison of the world
which is its promise
to mistake its pleasure
for its greatest treasure
