Jealousy


How do Me know Me am Your only one,

Your rippling River feels a jealous doubt,

Of other Stream Beds where Your waters run,

Of other Loves that put Our Love to rout.

***

You say My feeling is ridiculous,

Since Me am all and Love all, not just You,

Your Human logic is meticulous,

You dam My crying, turn My rage to rue.

***

But Me am wrong, Me should not acquiesce,

As Ocean wide, Me have prerogatives,

Me overflow, Me storm, Me deliquesce,

Me need not answer interrogatives!

***

As mortal You are less tied down than Me,

As timeless Me am bound and must be free!
