SIDE EFFECTS OF LOVE

Forgiveness, knight’s medal
Given over time
Corroded feelings
Hide behind and penetrate
A sacred wall of bone, 
Blood, and thoughts
Escaping through shots
Of misty words
A dirty sign of truth
Is not as seems
As it sits beneath 
And on its course
A Trojan Horse
Should I say “Open wide?”

Remembering 
Past the pain
When this dog walked
Along the trail
Tail wagging, senses
Piqued with pleasure thoughts
Until a certain rabbit came
And stirred a mix
Of fear and wonder
Pouring out in several spots
And blamed it on the spoon
Obviously meaning a
Simple conscious cleaning
When the truth can run and hide
