If your love was a frog...
I'd pin it to the board
and stare. Scrutinizing
every line, every action and reaction;
as I poked, prodded and tested;
taking care not to damage
the delicate vessels, taking care
not to get under the skin
too much, anyway. I'd shine a light deep
into it's eyes, and shock
the poor thing till it either
stayed, or ran away.
