Pledge
you take me to a simple time, simply
a past life, perhaps
where labels and currency are just figures
and love is the only collateral to happiness.
I want to forget material ambitions
trade in mirrors for paintings
Hollow walls for the fresh soil of individual
hard work and modesty
cultivate the drive of music, art and poverty
with the grace of silent movies
I want to be poor with you
hungry with you
sad with you, small with you
All to just
reach with you--
appetite,
ecstasy,
love.
