One Sad Fate of Shallowness

Some do so, with all the skills of laziness

weighed up against the value of a calorie stored

Perhaps merely driven by, a whimsical desire

to habitually satisfy porcine habits of wallowing

Some charge across the screen in brilliant blaze

intent on educating others, in the art of framed gratification

without blurring the lines or their makeup, on busy days

Perhaps they are richer for the sight and sounds of quick groping...

So many unable to comprehend, what it is to give and not just take

Such expectations fall short of mutual and will always degrade

the most beautiful sensations to be explored, craved for and,

consistently satisfied, by virtue of one’s heart and ability

A pure state found within, a selfless commitment to truly know

and to understand, what being a great lover demands…
