What Spells Love

I.
She was!, bold; Beautiful — a fighter soft
a peaches-and-cream concoction dear smooth
a field fairity; fabulous; a loft
What bids women a fantasy's sweet groove!
I was lost! ... longgging in limerence kool —
I swam*' from sea to soul, from soul to thought!—
Unimpaired, I've found died alive her pools
I swam!, willful willing this will stern wrought

II.
She was!, manicured marvelous and dear —
No mere moehill for me to misplace her grands'
Soft stern; stout silk; sensational no-fear
So Christmas-in-the-Summer gifts woman
She is notwithstanding magnificent
Where love be love! — pit poet efficient — 9/3/22; 10:42

Mus' Be Love

Ebbing!, controlled—locked—by her eye wink
Compelled me towards—slow molasses;
Sweet!, mus' be the Sonnet She siphors Ink's
Bleed upon the page real as loving's trust;
and!, not soon after: "2-sum-1" here now
Betterment!, I mean to keep her silk; soft;
Spectacular; Special in the sense: "Low
and behold!, soulmates mus' contact 1-loft
Fast and jus' as slow as Allah so-meant
Ebbs the lasting of Interaction
A force french-kissing mind; soul; body mint
compels plenty poems' satisfaction—
Sweet!, mus' be molasses liquor regal
You!, mus' be Love — and!, Love is unequal — 8/26/22, 8:12am
