A New Social Milestone

A sigh of relief from some.

A time of rejoicing for others.

The rainbow people finally get their unions

Love is flowing now to more people than ever

New love

Old love

Love for all ages.

Rainbow love.

The Great White Court handed down the decree

That the people of the rainbow flag

Get to show their love legally.

For a time they were allowed to date

But now, together and forever they can decide their fate.

Forget the rants

Forget fiery mad rhetoric

Forget the fire and brimstone preachers

Who moan and whine

Who scream and yell

From their burning pulpits in the front of the room

Because love is a beautiful thing

No matter who shows it,

No matter who knows it,

No matter where it comes from,

No matter how you receive it,

Let this love of one another forever ring.

39. Hellen and Paris

Love be now your song, immortal one,
For now the war is over.
What once was love
Became the war of ages.
What once was war
Became peaceful ruined silence.
Among Schliemann’s tel
Sprang forth stories like weeds.
Tales of great adventurers
Who scaled those Cyclopian walls
And brought Troy to its knees.
A fair young maiden
Was the start of this great tragedy.
All for the love of a shepherd prince.
This maiden of the tripod city
Was called the fairest of the land.
Her beauty gave her great fame
And suitors came far and wide
To give her their name.
The shepherd prince chose Love
Over gray eyed intelligence and the bright arms of conquest.
He that gave the golden apple bending to Discord’s secret wish.
Bringing to his country
The invasion of a thousand ships.
