Added on a bit...
Level the mountains
and raise the seas
'til nothing but plains remain
no bars between us
except for
us.
would you then love me
for me?
as just me?
all social constraits
undone
materialism made
immaterial
would the collision of
heart and mind
body and soul
that is
me
suffice?
nothing for you to withdraw from
nothing for you to hold on to
but
eyes.that.thirst
and a
heart.that.beats.
slowFASTslowFASTslow
would you then love me
would you love me
if every rectangle was a square
and every triangle isoceles
and every angle obtuse
would you love me
if every star
was the north star
beckoning you
with the same glitter
in lands
with perfect faces
shining places
markets that were perfect
both inside and
on the surface
would you love me
if the only variable
was 'us'
would you then love me
ceteris paribus?

4 of them wept:
someone writes well.
(what does economics hav to do with love o wise one?)
hurt much eh?
let go.
if only ceteris paribus was real and not just scientific bull shit.
ignore me, but good words though. love the periods after the words. adds oompf to the mix.
haha..ofourse i knew what u meant, but apparently the sarcasm rolled off u....:)
i quite like the idea of constants and variables actually. and the part u added,, nicely done.
and hav to agree with sadaf, the hesitant tone of the poem is quite...oompf-ful, as she says..
i really like this poem
