Let’s Remain Friends
Love is capable
Of ruining our marvelous friendship
And destroying our great relationship.
Love is culpable
In every instance, where strong feelings
Are engaged. Love stings
Like the nocturnal killer bees
Like the flower hat jellies of the shallow seas.
Let’s remain friends
Let’s shake hands
And avoid the kisses and the hugs
So we won’t stain our velvety rugs.
Love is a deadly harpoon
With a sharp and invisible blade
Love is an unpredictable weapon.
Let’s not drink that Kool-aid
Appearance is deceiving
This drink is potent and debilitating.
Love is capable
Of staining our soul
Let’s stay clear of the pool.
Love is culpable
Love is a viperish mother-in law
Love is an apprentice Alf with a deadly saw.
Let’s remain friends
Let’s shake hands
And let’s have fun
Under the pristine smile of the moon.
