This is a destructive love,
It tears into the middle of the crowd
With the weight of its passion.

A divisive love,
It splits bread and water
Three meals a day.

A treacherous love,
A thief breaks into your home,
Theirs gets the police.

An illegal love,
It never, not at all,
Thinks of marriage.

A plundering love,
It harvests joy
From the most ordinary tunes.

A rootless love,
It badly imitates
Dante and Beatrice.

An occupying love,
It calls those who love in the hayloft
Nothing else.
