To Mo | a poem by a Faust




 



to Mo

Or, As if you needed convincing, one reason among many


the world is better with you in it

easier to keep away

the stupid mindless evil when 

it threatens overwhelm my day


better looking at the ugly

when i think what you might say

better knowing something funny

sometimes i forget to play


not that anyone is perfect

certainly nobody here

but i never saw a human defect

make you change your love for fear


as if to show how seeing maybe

better finds a way to cope

& in this world such solidarity

is the same for me as hope
