A Travesty Has Been Handed Down We Call History Valentine

Like God I doubted myself
the way you would floss your teeth
or get ready to go for a run
I had no indigenous emotions
they arrived by monthly subscriptions
which I’d sometimes forget to renew
but we depended on one another for grace
which can only come from without
I wanted to be all of you
and saw at some point I
already was as you were too
that’s the last significant thing
I recall before the spell set in
and the gods re-introduced
their new concept of alone
