Extol


I was wrong
before
about falling in
love being about
me

It’s not.

And fitting together
Is one thing
But I’ve never ‘not’
fitted
with a lover.

All people fit
If you hammer hard
enough.

So love isn’t that,
either.

Our love is about
light up deities,
pop gods
and seasides.

And how you came
from space to save
me,
did you know that?
  
The story is
upside-down
from the way you
tell it.
