"Why must I always be the Love?"

[pro c.f. mmxviii]

Why must you always be the Love?
Shining in the blackening Gray, the Star?
Because Love's fragments from Above,
Below, Between, Behind, Beyond, they are

on lease to you, no matter who you are
Love is the Payment and the Rent
the Palace and the Tenement
beyond the Grave, beyond the Star

We die! Love is and is not who we are
and if every stain cries not, "Holy Holy is the Light"
we are not listening, Love is never far
but is the Light itself and not the Star
