untitled ranting: On Romance

untitled ranting on romance.
++++++++++++++++++++

dont get me wrong...
i love a good sap poem..
but few accounts of
love strike me as realistic
because they scarcely
reveal The Dark...

the truth how love is
often a junkie sticking
it's needle in your heart.

then of course you have
your "romantic scholars"...

you know the type.

the ones who sit around
Defining what "true love"
is, until they get others
drawn into the pop cultural
hype..

star raped minds dreaming
of elusive heavens and fields
of flowers.( denying the reality
Of Constant NIGHT.)
I could truly Hate Them All
For Hours!!

yet,..
I won't be bold enough to
assert that Chivalry is Dead..
just..
honest enough to suggest
that it likely never existed
outside of some drunken
poets idealistic head..

none live up to the myths
they make of themselves...
they simply keep loving in
spite the pain...
in search of those wonderful
heavens.

(regardless that their heart
often leads them straight
to hell.)

j.s.h.
