does thy

February 5, 2023

does thy flowers not bloom?

much like the daisies in the field not yours

does thy wine not taste good?

mush like the whisky of another man’s cup

does thy bed not let you rest?

much like the cot in a stranger’s home

does my love not fill you with joy?

much like anyone who love another.

does thy jealously shrink everything you own?
