Laura was never so in love with Scott She told me how after they broke up, how in love they were. And how they enjoyed each other’s company And how over two pizzas they marveled And how later when they made love And oh the tingle of the touch of Scott. Laura, I said, I have never been so in love As I am in love with my first love Jason Tends to a baby he made with his wife Margaret. My dog Lucy too is not so she has never been Until this moment the rat God too Has never been so in love with the sun He let go the sun Somewhere there are small children wading in a pool in the summer sun.
Until they broke up.
At dinner once again.
At the ecstasy of their conjoined thoughts.
It was the best love making ever.
With anyone until this moment
Who in a small house in St. Louis
So in love with anyone
Has slipped from her mouth’s grasp.
As in this moment
For us all to see.
They have yet to know what love is.
