For the sake of poem
and relevance of religion
For the use of pragmatism
and making sense of common sense
For the love of conditions
and deception of reason
For the rhythm of dance
and form in all art
For the necessity of luck
and obsession of tragedy
For surviving life
and outliving death
For the hope of heavens,
only when dead
For letting me sleep
with the ghost of my dreams
Deny we must,
oppose outright,
ridicule if need be
throw away the idea,
not even acknowledge
its possibility or presence
the myth
of true love
