True Blue Poem by shimon weinroth

I read and reread, my heart bled,
with dread and remorse for Triolus and Criseyde -
shedding rivers of tears, filling oceans with promises
exchanging vows of everlasting passion and affection

' Where art thou Romeo' and Juliet
lovers tragic and noble,
at clandistine meetings, raw and pure
impassioned pleas, untarnished by second thoughts

Christian authors employ courtly love
pagan characters and gods, royal and heretic
amuse, arouse the naturaql sensetivities
wrongly educate the vicarious spectator

how then, brown cow, could you expect
untarnished pure and noble love
