Such is Love

Such an attitude
To love.

Pretty things
In showy containers.
Lover as advertisement,
Well marketed.

Targeted toy,
Curious confluence
Of want, need, lust, desire.
Lover as commodity--
So much chattel.

Romance is a blurred chemical overlay.
Sex makes you sore.
Love is horse-trading--
And about as sentimental.
