Value is given,
Not inherent
Gold is valuable
Because it’s hard to get
Love is valuable
Because it’s hard to keep
Sex?
That’s worthless,
Because you can get that
Anywhere.
People say relationships need
Love and sex
Mixing the rare and the worthless
Don’t they know a scam when they see one?
Love you make, sex you give.
How could something used as a
Bargaining chip
Be necessary?
A challenge unspoken
“You’re a woman, aren’t you?”
“You’re a man, don’t you want it?”
Motive and lust complicating our lives
Twisted needs defining the people we see
Boy, girl, man, woman.
Perverted, innocent, sex fiend, sex object.
Cut through the lies to find the truth underneath
Cast away lies, drama, secrets
Embrace honesty, straightforwardness, clear-thinking
Value yourself, others, and the simple joys in life
Dissect yourself to take the blinders from your eyes.
How does who you are affect
who you meet?
How do your blinders blind or cage others?
See the world how it is
And not how people make it,
Simple things blown up like bouncy houses
If it doesn’t deflate in the middle of your party,
It’ll explode another day.
