What does it mean to take and love the giver?
To love receiving, but to even more
Feel everything of weight within you quiver
Because of who has given? To adore
Not just because the one who gives has given,
But a priori, well before that cause?
To feel, by inward vast compulsion, driven
To love despite the benefactor's flaws
But yet before a benefit is felt?
To take, and benefit, and to obtain
But antedating that obtaining, melt?
I think it goes directly with the grain:
I cannot love to take unless I love
The giver of what I'm receiver of.
