All

A heart should be attachéd to a head,
Which should, in turn, have limbs and bones and such.
Some claim they can do otherwise instead,
But their pretensions don't amount to much.
Even the most emotional of us,
Or those whose spirit carries them away,
Has blood and bile, plasma, piss, and pus,
And all these fluids dribble, drip, and spray.
We are all carnal creatures, and yet all
Bear minds that can be rational and wise;
We all must answer at our bodies' call,
And human need to each of us applies.
So when I say I love you, that means me:
All of my parts loving unitedly.
