Rhyming

At this time we seem to have
become a poem that no longer rhymes,
but the great muse, whose other name is love,
still wants us to, so each time one of us reaches out
to another in love we make a couplet which becomes
part of the soul-poem we are collectively trying to write, these are the true joys that puncture our darkness
and each one is invariably a consequence of love.
