From Poetic Asides:  “For today’s prompt, we’re faced with the final Two-for-Tuesday prompt of the month, which means we’re faced with these two options: Write a love poem.  Write an anti-love poem.”


it doesn’t require tithes
weekly attendance fancy clothes
humility homilies choirs
daily prayers
war
touchdowns game saving threes
or collection plates.

love is the only god
i have ever known.

so let’s gather together
whenever
no particular place
free of charge
listen laugh live
victorious
then leave knowing
love is the source
of who we are.
