Harpoon to the Heart

Fragments of Infatuation

By Amos GladePublished a day ago Updated about 11 hours ago 1 min read

how do you explain the explicitly unexplainable?

the mystery

(a parable)

the feeling of love.

like there’s a map from above?

all mapped out by a man with a celestial grand plan,

to send out a fat baby

with a...

bow and arrow

(hell no)

no science these times!

your limits divined

YOU know where YOU draw your lines am I...

happy?

am I healthy?

while looking 'round the corners

for crossbow wielding toddlers

(bare assed shootin’ waddlers)

we’ve all made mistakes

instructions from snakes, and

the child will locate its target

your heart breaks apart and the,

splinters,

the splinters,

the shrapnel of the splinters,

the splinters imbed into thousands of heads , and

perhaps;

love is an energy

(synergy)

a hidden sixth sense

a guiding angel, permissible

to the people reciprocal

you need when you need them

who give you your freedom

to be
