Never In Love

 

Sometimes we think our way

Into no win situations,

Like bureaucrats and politicians

Coloring the picture to the

Shades of perfection we perceive

In that illusion of who knows

What is really real,

Then the stupidity of stupid

Steps in and we defend

Those thoughts, ideas, decisions,

Events, way past the edges

Of logic and common sense,

This may appear to work

In politics, business, religion,

 Cliques and gossip,

But never in love,

For love beats to the heart

Of the matter where naked

Passion peels away pretence

And artful planning.
