what you allow is what continues
this is a case that's almost the truth
cursive painted, how many times have you
stolen kisses in the elevator
called it a love, how many times have you
caught a wrist in the kitchen
grabbing hard the stick arms
bruised, called it another form of kindness
how many times have you told someone
who was uncalled for, it was called for?
what you allow is what continues,
touch, kisses, a word slanting sideways
you are what has been kept happening
a little less kindness, a little less love.
