Everybody Loves Love

 

Everybody loves love

But they won’t do the work

To burn the curtain

Unwilling to dig deep to reach it

The fireflies know, hiding deep in the forest

Moths are lying dead by the highway

Mobs are going by at eight and at six

Everyone looks at their own watch

Letting it burn all around them

It’s fair to question

Does everybody really love love?
