garages

at the heart of the matter
love is a simple thing
when all else is stripped away
the cultural baggage
the emotional cargo trunks
social graces slipped
in over the transom
little games tucked neatly away
in storage containers
all packed away in the garages
of our hearts built just for such
accumulations that we always
drag around from place to place
and things get broken in each move
not always a bad thing
for when I break open the shell of my
understanding I find you
within the husk of this:
simplicity
you and me
together
nothing else could possibly matter
