Parzival's Valentine

There’s a red garnet stone
that sits on a golden ring
near the center of this story
catching your eye as you pass
the only remaining proof
a death happened here
a murder perhaps but it’s
all that remains of the body
of the first impulsive god
who got it all moving and flowing
until the music could manage
inventing itself on its own
slowly the blood built a heart
capable of love this red
