What Is A Kiss?
Married thirty years; she wants divorce.
She will not kiss him when he asks:
And he must ask.
She might as well say, “Kiss my ass”,
But she doesn’t;
Doesn’t love him anymore.
Doesn’t even like him, (it would seem.)
A kiss: that favorite symbol:
Lips that touch.
It isn’t much.
A rite, a pooling of two hearts;
A politeness carried on in foreign parts.
Passionate, brotherly or sisterly;
A chance to sniff out enmity.
As primitive as monkeys,
A kiss is just, is still a kiss.
Importantly,
It always will be.
