saliva splatter
reeking breath from toothless grin
outstretched empty hand
only when you share a meal
there’s love without conditions

reeking breath from toothless grin
outstretched empty hand
only when you share a meal
there’s love without conditions

chronicling my quarter life crisis
truly, truly; have a nice Sunday
much love…
Very well put,and just as true.
Yes, sharing a meal makes everything different, doesn’t it??
Interesting words, sir.
You must mean “agape” (Greek, meaning”selfless love”)…from Christian theology. This kind of love will transform both giver and receiver, yes!
Ah.. of course 🙂 I was tired writing this..
there can be love without conditions…
over the table, sharing a meal…def much more intimate than
dropping a quarter in his palm….or passing him by
Your descriptions in this are so strong. And the whole poem, a lesson.
I think the first time I saw my grandmother without her teeth…
a different agape indeed.
It would be nice to share a meal without insults. I was at a meal earlier this month and some one guest could not refrain from tripping a few sad words…
