its in there
but we have forgotten it

she used to send me clippings of that one cartoon
thru the u s snail mail

it was like the family circus
something would happen in the drawing
then the writer would write
love is

it might be something like
love is
when he doesnt fall asleep two minutes after finishing
and the cartoon drawing would be of him him passing zzzzs

and this was decades ago
and I had forgotten
because I had thrown away all those clippings I had saved
because what love was or is
was something else to her

just last week for the first time I was watching
eternal sunshine of the endless mind
or a title like it
and there it was
the main actress was wearing a shirt that had the cartoon
love is

and now I think of everything I have experienced
and every time I have heard the word love
not knowing love was bouncing off of a forgotten memory
of what love is
or was

is it no wonder I have been acting the way I have

and now
if that cartoon was in the newspaper
perhaps
it might say

love is something brand new
