KEEP SENDING LOVE OUT
Keep sending love out
where the heart clutches and the soul sings.
Keep sending love out,
into the lighted dark,over the fog swept sea,
or where it runs the risk of dying dusty death.
Send it where there may not be an echo,
no return. Send love, that magic portent,
that drug of madness, the poet's bane, some fool's delight.
Send it where it has never been, a new address.
Keep sending, sending, sending. . . .
