Please specify the group

EROS/ROSE

let us call it EROS

or ROSE

let us not call it LOVE

anymore

let EROS

or ROSE

cover this ground we walk on—

a flower, a force—

let us certainly not call it

CHARITY (caritas)

let us not even

call it AFFECTION

or DESIRE

let EROS/ROSE cover it

let us acknowledge

our bone knowing:

what draws us towards

and anchors us.

We may call it OPENNESS

but, better,

EROS /ROSE

I Love….

let us acknowledge
our bone knowing:
what draws us towards
and anchors us.

So direct at the root

I adore to be exhorted to think of new ways to address and approach love.
