Le Cœur

There is no Kingdom
of the Heart
there ’tis the Plebes
who Reign
 

It has no bound
to largesse
be it of joy
or pain
 

It dares only to
remember
it cares but not to
forget
 

What’s too graven
to embrace
it laves
in legerdemain
 

Never seeking to
calculate
audits both loss
and gain
 

And never needing
to cogitate
ever showers The Truth
like rain

 
Beyond passions
of love and hate
showers The Truth
like rain
