Passion

They say bacon takes nine minutes off your life.
While a good cigarette takes seven
Certainly a kiss is timeless
Yet will keep you busy a while.
This notion of trading
Your three score and ten
For pleasure
Is intriguing to consider
In the uncertain moments
As the
Plane
Goes down.

Love is the ultimate gerund.
Though you see hate more in the papers:
Hatecrime
Hatespeech
Lovecrimes you see more on the stage.
The play within the play.
Scenes of the writer, writing.
With no narration.
In the press and in the courts
We refer to this as
A crime of passion
That’s the jury you want to be on.
