Just Believe

A spatial poem about passion

Do you believe
that love is real,
that                              men can genuinely                              feel
beyond the                    simply sexu-                    al appeal?
They've faked their love since Adam bedded Eve!
Or so I used to think.
Each Saturday,
an easy lay —
a woman to deceive.
Until I met my Steve.
He taught          me how
to scream                    aloud
and raised                    eyebrows
within                              the crowd.
I'm hap-                                        py now!
